Songtexte Waltzing Matilda - Harry Belafonte

Oh, once a jolly swagman, camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a Coolibah tree
He sang as he sat and waited while his billy boiled
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Waltzing Matilda, Matilda my darling
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, leaning on a water bag
You'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
Oh, he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Waltzing Matilda, Matilda my darling
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, leaning on a water bag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Oh, down came the squatter a-riding his thoroughbred
(Down came the troopers, one, two, three)
Where's the jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Waltzing Matilda, Matilda my darling
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, leaning on your water bag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Swagman, he up and jumped in the water hole
Drowning himself by the Coolibah tree
And his ghost may be heard as you ride by the billabong
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Waltzing Matilda, Matilda my darling
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, leaning on a water bag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me

Waltzing Matilda, Matilda my darling
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, leaning on a water bag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
