Waltzing Matilda
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
Under the shade of a Coolibah tree,And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boil,You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
Chorus:Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me,And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boil
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabongUp jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bagYou'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
Chorus
Up rode the squatter mounted on his thorough-bredDown came the troopers One Two Three
Whose that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bagYou'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
Chorus
Up jumped the swagman sprang in to the billabongYou'll never catch me alive said he,
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabongYou'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
Chorus
