Lyrics

Here we go 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 You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong Up got the swaggie and grabbed him with glee And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker-bag You'll come a-waltzing Matil- (sing it now) 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 Okay, I wanna hear the blokes by themselves You know the routine, next chorus Make sure the girls go home feeling proud of you, okay? Here we go Down came the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred Up came the troopers, one two three Who's the jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag? You'll come a-waltzing Ma- (blokes only now, here we go) Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me (who's the jolly jumbuck?) Who's the jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag? You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me Give 'em a round of applause girls, that was proud Okay girls, next chorus is your chance to turn us blokes on, give us goose-bumps After this verse Up got the swaggie and jumped into the billabong "You'll never catch me alive", said he And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong You'll come a-waltzing Matil- (girls only now) Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me (and his ghost) And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me Give 'em a round of applause fellas, that was fantastic All together now Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me Up the Wallabies!
