Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong Under the shade of a coolibah tree He said as he watched and waited 'till his billy boiled Who'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me? Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda You'll come a Waltzing Matila with me He sang as he watched and waited 'till 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 He laughed as he shoved that jumbuck in this tuckerbag You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me Down came the squatter mounted on this throughbred Up jumped the troopers, one, two, three Where's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tuckerbag? You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me The swagman he got up and jumped into that billabong You'll never catch me alive said he His ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong You'll come a Waltzing Matilda wih me
