Ian & Sylvia — Royal Canal

[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
