Oh! a hungry feeling, it came o'er me stealing
And the mice they were squealing in my prison cell
And the auld triangle, went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
To begin the morning, the screw was bawling
Get up you bowsies and clean out your cell
And the auld triangle, went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
In the female prison there are seventy-five women
It's among them I wish I did dwell
And the auld triangle, went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
I wish to blazes they'd change the wages
from fifty shillings ah to two pounds ten.
Then the auld triangle, could go jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
