Squalls - Waltzing Mathilda lyrics
[Squalls - Waltzing Mathilda lyrics]
Billabong under a koolaba tree
He sang as he sat and
Watched as his billy boiled
"Who'll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me?"
Waltzing mathilda with me
Down came a jumpbuck to
Drink at the billabong
Up jumped the swagman and
Grabbed him with glee
He sang as he stowed that
Jumpbuck in his tuckerbag
"You'll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me"
Waltzing Mathilda with me
Down came the squatter
Mounted on his thoroughbed
Down came the troopers, one, two, three
Where's that jolly jumpbuck you've got
There in your tuckerbag?
You'll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me
Waltzing Mathilda with me
Up jumped the swagman
He dove into the billabong
"You'll never catch me alive" said he
His ghost can be heard
All along the billabong
"Who'll come a-waltzing Mathilda with me?"
Waltzing Mathilda with me
