The Auld Triangle (The John Peel Show) [as Pogue Mahone] [April 1984] |
A hungry feeling, came o’er me stealing |
And the mice they were squealing in my prison cell |
And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle |
All along the banks of the Royal Canal |
Oh to start the morning, the warden bawling |
Get up out of bed you, and clean out your cell |
And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle |
All along the banks of the Royal Canal |
Oh the screw was peeping and the lag was sleeping |
As he lay weeping for his girl Sal |
And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle |
All along the banks of the Royal Canal |
On a fine spring evening, the lag lay dreaming |
And the seagulls were wheeling high above the wall |
And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle |
All along the banks of the Royal Canal |
Oh the wind was sighing, and the day was dying |
As the lag lay crying in his prision cell |
And that auld triangle, went jingle bloody jangle |
All along the banks of the Royal Canal |
In the female prison there are seventy women |
And I wish it was with them that I did dwell |
And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle |
All along the banks of the Royal Canal |
