Pogues - The Auld Triangle lyrics
A hungry feeling<br>Came o'er me stealing<br>And the mice were squeeling<br>In my prison cell<br>And that auld triangle went jingle-jangle<br>All along the banks of the royal canal<br><br>Oh! to start the morning<br>The warden bawling<br>Get up out of bed, you! and clean out your cell!<br>And that auld triangle went jingle-jangle<br>All along the banks of the royal canal<br><br>Oh! the screw was peeping<br>And the loike was sleeping<br>As he lay weeping<br>For his girl sal<br>And that auld triangle went jingle-jangle<br>All along the banks of the royal canal<br><br>On a fine spring evening<br>The loike lay dreaming<br>And the sea-gulls were wheeling<br>High above the wall<br>And that auld triangle went jingle-jangle<br>All along the banks of the royal canal<br><br>Oh! the wind was sighing<br>And the day was dying<br>As the loike lay crying<br>In his prison cell<br>And that auld triangle went jingle-bloody-jangle<br>All along the banks of the royal canal<br><br>In the women's prison<br>There are seventy women<br>And I wish it was with them<br>That I did dwell<br>Then that auld triangle could go jingle-jangle<br>All along the banks of the royal canal
