Dan Zanes:
Once a jolly swagman camped by the billabong under the shade of a coolibah tree
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
Deborah Harry:
Along comes a jambuck to drink up at the waterhole
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
And he said as he put the jumbuck in his tuckerbag you'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Dan Zanes & Deborah Harry:
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda
Who'lll come a waltzing matilda with me
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
Dan Zanes:
Along comes a squatter, riding on a thoroughbred
Up steps the troopers, one, two, three
Where's the jolly jumbuck you've got in your tuckerbag?
You'll come a waltzing matilda with me
Dan Zanes & Deborah Harry:
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
Deborah Harry:
Well, the swagman he up and jumped into the waterhole dorwning himself by the coolibah tree
And his ghost may be heard as it sings in the billabong who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
Dan Zanes & Deborah Harry:
Waltzing matilda, waltzing matilda
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
And he sang as he sat and waited by the billabong who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
Deborah Harry:
Who'll come a waltzing matilda with me?
