Philemon Arthur And The Dung - Waltzing Matilda Text (lyrics)

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolabah tree
And he sang as he watched and
Waited 'til his billy boiled
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 watched and
Waited 'til his billy boiled
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda, with me

Down came a jumbuck to
Drink at that billabong
Up jumped the swagman and
Grabbed him with glee
And he sang as he shoved that
Jumbuck in his tucker bag
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 shoved that
Jumbuck in his tucker bag
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda, with me

Up rode the squatter
Mounted on his thoroughbred
Down came 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, Waltzing Matilda
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

Up jumped the swagman and
Sprang into the billabong
You'll never take me alive, said he
And his ghost may be heard as
You pass by that billabong
You'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 pass by that billabong
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda, with me
Oh, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda, with me
