Olde Triangle

from Loose Cannons by The Jolly Rogers

/

lyrics

A hungry feeling, came o'er me stealing,
And the mice were squealing, in my prison cell.
And the old triangle, went jingle jangle,
All along the banks, of the Royal Canal.
Now to start the morning, the warden bawlin’,
'Get out of bed and clean up your cell'.
And the old triangle went jingle jangle,
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
Now, on a fine spring evening, the lag lay dreaming,
and the seagulls wheeling, high above the wall.
And the old triangle went jingle jangle,
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
Now, the wind was rising, and the day declining,
As I lay pining, in my prison cell.
And the old triangle went jingle jangle,
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
Now the wind was sighing, and the day was dying,
As I lay there cryin’, in my prison cell.
And the old triangle went jingle jangle,
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
Now, in the female prison, there are seventy five women,
And I wish it was with ‘em, that I did dwell.
And the old triangle, could go jingle jangle,
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.
