1. Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong Under the shade of a collabah tree And he sang as he watched and waited ‘til his kettle boiled Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me?
CHORUS
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me? And he sang as he watched and waited ‘til his kettle boiled Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me?
2. Down came a Jambuck to drink at the billabong Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee And he sang as he stowed that Jambuck in his tucker bag You’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me.
Chorus
3. Up jumper the squatter mounted on his thoroughbred Up came the troopers ONE, TWO, THREE Where’s that jolly Jambuck you’ve got in your tucker bag? You’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me
Chorus
4. Up jumped the swagman, sprang into the billabong You’ll never catch me alive said he Now his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me?
Chorus
