Waltzing Matilda

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
Under the shade of a coolibah-tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled,
"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 watched and waited till his billy boiled,
"Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?"
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billabong:
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee.
And he sang as he shoved 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 shoved that jumbuck in his tucker-bag,
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me."

Up rode a squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred;
Down came the troopers, one, two, three:
"Who's 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.
Who's that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker-bag?
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me!"

Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong;
"You'll never catch me alive!" said he;
And his ghost may be heard as you pass 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 pass by that billabong,
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me!"

Here's my favorite tune, though the "hair" part has come...and gone!(And the 'partying' part too!)



People say I'm no good and lazy as a loon,

'Cause I get stoned in the morning, I get drunk in the afternoon,

Kinda like my old pick-up truck, I just lay around in the shade,

I sure don't make much money, but I damn sure got it made,

I ain't asking nobody for nothing, if I can't get it on my own,

If you don't like the way I'm living, you just leave this long-haired country boy alone!

Couple years ago my hair reached to my belt...
Then my Boss told me he's gonna pay my haircut if I get one  

Now I look like anybody else :[

Sudden desire to see Australia, Staga?

Petals floating by,
      Drift through my woman's hand,

Naah... That song is just cool  

I had to use some time to find out meaning of some those words...
They didn't teach Australian English here
