Waltzing Matilda is a song from Australia. If memory serves, the words are:

Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me
and he sang as he sat ((something))
by the billabong ((a lake))

You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me

That's the chorus, anyway. I used to know the whole song, but I don't anymore.
I believe that Matilda had drowned in the billabong (sp?) and he
was singing to her.

Anyone else remember the rest?

Janet
