Lyrics:

A hungry feeling
Came o'er me stealing
And the mice were squeeling
In my prison cell
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
To begin the morning
A screw bawling
'Get up, you bowsie
And clean up your cell'
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
The lags were sleeping
Humpy Gussy was creeping
As I lay there weeping
For my gal Sal
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Up in the female prison
There are 75 women
'Tis among them
I wish I did dwell
Then the auld triangle could go jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
