Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til his billy boiled
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Waltzing matilda waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til his billy boiled
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Along came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
And he sang as he stowed
That jumbuck in his tucker bag
You'll come a waltzing
Matilda with me
Waltzing matilda waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
And he sang as he watched
And waited 'til his billy boiled
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Up rode the squatter mounted on his thoroughbred
Down came the troopers one two three
Whose is that jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag
You'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Waltzing matilda waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Whose is that jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag
You'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Up jumped the swagman
Leapt into the billabong
You'll never catch me alive said he
And his ghost may be heard
As you pass by the billabong
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Waltzing matilda waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
