Waltzing Matilda (Queensland Version) - Lionel Long/Grey Larsen and Paddy League
There once was a swagman camped in a Billabong
Under the shade of a Coolabah tree
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 water-hole
Up jumped the swagman
And grabbed him with glee
He sang as he shoved
That jumpbuck 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
On his thoroughbred
Down came Policemen
One two three
Whose is the jumbuck
You've got in the 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
But the swagman he up
And he jumped into the billabong
Drowning himself by the Coolabah tree
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
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
