Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree
He sang and he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
"You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darling
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me
He sang and he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled
"You'll come a-waltzing, Mathilda, with me"
Well, down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
He laughed as he shoved that jumbuck in his tuckerbag
"You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darling
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me
He laughed as he shoved that jumbuck in his tuckerbag
"You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
Well, up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred
Up rode the troopers - one, two, three
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tuckerbag?
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darling
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me
"Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tuckerbag?
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
Well, up jumped the swagman and jumped into the billabong
"You'll never take me alive", said he
His ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
"You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darling
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me
His ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
"You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me"
