Burl Ives - Waltzing Matilda lyrics

Once a jolly swagman, sat beside the billabong Under the shade of the coolibah tree And he sang as he sat and waited by the billiabong 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 sat and waited by the billiabong You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me Down came a jumbuck to drink beside the billabong Up jumped the swagman and seized him with glee And he sang as he talked to 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 talked to that jumbuck in his tucker bag You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me Down came the stockman riding on his thorough bred Down came the troopers, one, two, three Wheres that jolly jumbuck that 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 Wheres that jolly jumbuck that you've got in your tucker bag? You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me Up jumped the swagman, plunged into the billabong You'll never catch me alive cried he And his ghost may be heard as you ride beside the billabong You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me And his ghost may be heard as you ride beside the billabong You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me
