The Auld Triangle

(albüm: C-Sides - 2023)

A hungry feeling
Came o'er me stealing
And the mice 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 warder was bawling
"Get up 'outta bed boy!
And clean up your cell!"
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

Well the screw was peeping
And the loike lay sleeping
As I was weeping
For my girl Sal
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

In the female prison
There are seventy women
And I wish to God it was with them
That I did dwell
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

On a fine Spring evening
The loike lay dreaming
And the sea-gulls were wheeling
High above the wall
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
