1. Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
under the shade of a coalibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me?
Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing Mathilda
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me,
And he sang ad he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me?
2. Down came a jumbuck to drink from the billabong.
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
And he sang as he showed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
You’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me. Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing Mathilda
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me,
And he sang as he showed that jumbuck in his tucker bag,
You’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me. |

3.Up came the squatter mounted on his thoroughbred;
Down came the troopers , one, two, three.
Whose that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tucker bag?
You’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me. Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing Mathilda
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me,
Whose that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tucker bag?
You’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me. 4. Up jumped the
swagman and he sprang into the billabong
“You’ll never take me alive”, said he
And his ghost may be heared as you pass by the billabong
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me?
Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing Mathilda
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me,
And his ghost may be heared as you pass by the billabong
Who’ll come a-Waltzing Mathilda with me?
