Waltzing Matilda
The Seekers

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 darlin',
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
He sang and he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled,
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, 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 stowed the jumbuck in his tucker-bag,
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darlin',
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
He laughed as he stowed the jumbuck in his tucker-bag,
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 tucker-bag?
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darlin',
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag?
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 the billabong,
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
Waltzing Matilda, Matilda, my darlin',
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
His ghost may be heard as you pass by the billabong,
You'll come a-waltzing, Matilda, with me.
