G'day there, This song is dedicated to all the homeless, Suicidal theives who've made this country great.
Once a Jolly Swag man, was not a Bag man, camped by a Billabong, he looked like Larry Hagman, beneath the shade of a tree called a coolabah, it wasn't far by car from Maloolabah.
he sang as he waited for his billy to boil, he was sitting on the soil, it was gonna take a while.
When he could see the steam on his tea, he said "you'll come a waltzing matilda with me."
Waltzing matilda, she came from saint Kilda, her middle name was Hilda and her Daddy was a builder.
When he could see the steam on his tea he said "you'll come a waltzing matilda with me"
Yo come a waltzing matilda with me
Down came a jumbuck and he was dumb struck
He jumped up and picked it up and hot his thumb stuck
He flicked out the dag, and rolled up his swag and stuck that jumbuck down in his tuckerbag.
I can't quite remember what happens next, im gonna revert to the origional text.
"down came a stock man mounted on..."
ok, I got it, I got it
Down came a stockman, Turned off his walk man, went to the swaggie and said "yo, whats up man?"
you dirty smuggler, I ain't no sucker,
what's in the bag with your tucker m************?
up jumped the swaggie and said "It wasn't me"
The stockman called on the troopers one,two, three
The cops came at last and chased him down the grass, to nab his theiving. skinny, white homeless a**
but they won't catch him, because he jumped in, the billabong for a neverending swim and as he took his dive, the listened to him jive, saying "you cops are never gonna take me alive!"
Yo come a waltzing matilda with me.
The Swaggie,
The Jumbuck,
The Stockman,
The Coolabah,
The Tuckerbag,
The Troopers,
The Yo-Yo,
Ah, geez I'm sorry Mum, I didnt mean to hurt ya, I didnt mean to steal that jumbuck, but tonight,
I'm cleaning out my tuckerbag.
