Banjo Paterson - Waltzing MatildaBanjo Paterson - Waltzing Matilda
Work rating: Medium


Oh there once was a swagman camped in the  billabong,   Under the shade of a Coolabah tree; And he sang as he looked at his old billy boiling   "Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me."   Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda, my darling.     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.   Waltzing Matilda and leading a water-bag     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me. Down came a jumbuck to drink at the waterhole,   Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him in glee; And he sang as he stowed him away in his tucker-bag,   "You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me."   Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda, my darling.     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.   Waltzing Matilda and leading a water-bag     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me. Down came the squatter a-riding his thoroughbred;   Down came policemen one, two, and three. "Whose is the jumbuck you`ve got in the tucker-bag?   You`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with we."   Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda, my darling.     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.   Waltzing Matilda and leading a water-bag     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me. But the swagman, he up and he jumped in the waterhole,   Drowning himself by the Coolabah tree; And his ghost may be heard as it sings in the billabong   "Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"   Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda, my darling.     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.   Waltzing Matilda and leading a water-bag.     Who`ll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
