[Verse 1]
A hungry feelin'
Came o'er me stealin'
And the mice were squealin' in my prison cell
And that old triangle
Goes jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

[Verse 2]
To begin the mornin'
The water boilin'
Get out of bed and clean up your cell
And that old triangle
Goes jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

[Verse 3]
On a fine spring evenin'
The lag lay dreamin'
The seagull wheelin' high above the wall
And that old triangle
Goes jingle janglе
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

[Verse 4]
The scrеw was peepin'
And the lag was sleepin'
As he lay there weepin' for his gal, Sal
And that old triangle
Goes jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
[Verse 5]
In the female prison
There are 70 women
And it's so with them that I would like to dwell
Then that old triangle
Could go jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

[Verse 6]
The day was dyin'
And the wind was sighin'
As I lay cryin' in my prison cell
And that old triangle
Goes jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
