Up came the jumbuck to drink at the waterhole Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him in glee Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
And he sang as he put hime away in the tuckerbag And he sang as he shoved the jumbuck in his tuckerbag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Up came the squatter a-riding his thoroughbred Down came a squatter mounted on a thoroughbred
Up came policemen one two three Down came troopers one two three
Whose is the jumbuck you've got in the tuckerbag? Whose is the jumbuck you've got in the tuckerbag?
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Up sprang the swagman and jumped in the waterhole Up jumped the swagman, sprang into the billabong
Drowning himself by the Coolibah Drowning himself neath the Coolibah tree
And his voice can be heard as it sings in the billabongs And his ghost may be heard as you walk around the billabong
Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me. You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
