Seekers - Waltzing Matilda Lyrics

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
\"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.\"

Chorus:
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me,
And 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,
And he sang as he stowed the jumbuck in his tucker-bag,
\"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.\"

Chorus

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.\"

Chorus

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.\"

Chorus
