The Old Triangle - Bert Jansch Written by:Traditional/Bert Jansch 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 To begin the morning A screw was bawling 'Get up you bowsie And clean up your cell' And the old triangle Went jingle jangle All along the banks Of the royal canal On a fine spring evening The lag was dreaming And seagulls wheeling High over the wall And the old triangle Went jingle jangle All along the banks Of the royal canal In the female prison There are seventy five women And i'ts among them I wish I did dwell And the old triangle Went jingle jangle All along the banks Of the royal canal The day was flying Came on me stealn' And the mind there was creatn' Then my breath inside And the old triangle Went jingle jangle All along the banks Of the royal canal
