Lyrics:

Once a jolly swagman sat beside the billabong,

Under the shade of a coolibah tree,

And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me



Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me



And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me

Down came a jumbuck to drink beside the billabong

Up jumped the swagman and seized him with glee

And he sang as he talked to that jumbuck in his

tuckerbag

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me



Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me



And he sang as he talked to that jumbuck in his

tuckerbag

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me.



Down came the stockman, riding on his thoroughbred,


Down came the troopers, one, two, three.

Where's that jolly jumbuck that you've got in your

tuckerbag?

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me

Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me

Where's that jolly jumbuck that you've got in your

tuckerbag?

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me.

Up jumped the swagman, plunged into the billabong,

You'll never catch me alive, cried he

And his ghost may be heard as you ride beside the

billabong,



Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me.

Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda

You'll come a waltzing matilda with me



And his ghost may be heard as you ride beside the

billabong,

Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me.
