Roy Orbison - Waltzing Matilda lyrics

Words and music: m. cowan Roy sang this song whilst on an australian tour It was taped by a fan and circulated..... Once a jolly swagman, camp´d by a billabong, Under the shade of a coolibah tree, And he sang as he watch´d and waited till his billy boiled, 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 till his billy boiled, You´ll come a waltzing matilda with me. Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong, Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee, And he sang as he shaoved 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 shaoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag, You´ll come a waltzing matilda with me. Up rode the squatter mounted on his thoroughbred, Down come the troopers, one, two, three, Whose 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, Whose that jolly jumbuck you´ve got in your tucker bag? You´ll come a waltzing matilda with me. Up jumped the swagman, sprang into the billabong, Drowning himself by the coolibah tree, And his ghost may be heard as you pa** by that 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 pa** by that billabong, You´ll come a waltzing matilda with me.
