Along the banks of the Royal Canal.
To begin the morning
The warder bawling
Get out of bed and clean up your cell
[Chorus]
The screw was peeping
The lag was sleeping
While he lay weeping for the girl Sal
[Chorus]
On a fine spring evening
The lag lay dreaming
The seagulls wheeling high above the wall
[Chorus]
The wind was rising
And the day declining
As I lay pining in my prison cell
[Chorus]
In the female prison
There are seventy-five women
I wish it was with them that I did dwell
[Chorus]
