The Auld Triangle Lyrics - Red Roses For Me - Pogues

A hungry feeling, came o'er me stealing 

And the mice 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 prison cell 

And that Auld Triangle, went jingle bloody jangle 

All along the banks of the Royal Canal 

In the women's prison there are seventy women 

And I wish it was with them that I did dwell 

And that Auld Triangle, can go jingle jangle 

All along the banks of the Royal Canal
