Waltzing Matilda Songtext
von The Countdown Kids

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?"
Down came a jumbuck to drink from 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
"You′ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
And he sang as he stowed 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, 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?"
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
Who'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by the billabong,
"Who′ll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me?"
