WALTZING MATILDA
Once a jolly swagman, camped by a billabong under the shade of a coolabah
tree
And he sang as he sat and waited while his billy boiled You'll come a
waltzing matilda with me
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda Who'll come a-waltzing matilda with me
And he sang as he sat and waited while his billy boiled
Who'll come a-waltzing matilda with me
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong up jumped the swagman and
grabbed him with glee And he sang as he stuffed that jumbuck in his tucker
bag You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda Who'll come a-waltzing matilda with me
And he sang as he stuffed that jumbuck in his tucker bag Who'll come
a-waltzing matilda with me
Down came the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred UP rode the troopers
one, two, three Who's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tuckerbag You'll
come a-waltzing matilda with me
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda Who'll come a-waltzing matilda with me
Who's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tuckerbag Who'll come a-waltzing
matilda with me
Up jumped the swagman, and leapt into the billabong "You'll never catch me
alive," said he and his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong,
'You'll come a-waltzing matilda with me'
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda Who'll come a-waltzing matilda with me
and his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong Who'll come
a-waltzing matilda with me
