    Version of Waltzing Matilda lyrics (Wikipedia):
    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
    You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me
    And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."
    Down came a jumbuck to drink at that 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 the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred.
    Down came the troopers, one, two, and three.
    "Whose[ is that 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",
    "Whose is that 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 take me alive!" said he
    And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong:
    "Who'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:
    "Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me?"

    Yes the song could be considered as an 'unofficial' national anthem. In 1977 Australians voted for the national anthem in a poll. 'Advance Australia Fair' came first and 'Waltzing Matilda' second.

    Greetings from the US - Is there anyway we can get a hold of a copy to buy? We had a video copy when my boys were little and they loved it. It has somehow gone missing and though they are grown they still love it and talk about it often.

    Claymation can be so incredibly unsettling sometimes.

    Hi Karen Brangan, it is very unlikely that this film is commercially available, although you could enquire through a large shop that sells dvd’s and so on. You could try websites such as amazon and ebay or other second hand markets. The film was made by the South Australian Film Corporation, so you could try contacting them directly. Any copying of the film requires permission of the SA Film Corporation, but of course you can always watch it on TH-cam.

    Greetings from Spain!!! Good Video!!! Beautiful and Sad Song!!! Is it true that this is the "second" anthem of Australia?

  • @denSwagman

    That was the National Song poll, not National Anthem. Too many people did not want a song glorifying a criminal as a national anthem. Whitlam was trying to test the waters. I worked at the Australian Electoral Office at the time counting the votes.

    Am I able to embed this video clip into my educational blog? I don't want to infringe any copyright regulations. Reading the TOS from TH-cam and for Global2 (blog) it appears that I can do so but just require clarification. By the way my Year 3/4 classes really enjoyed watching it.

      Hi Kaye, yes you are able to embed the video in your blog. Please acknowledge the SA Film Corporation and the State Library of SA in your blog post. The film can not be actually copied/downloaded without permission. I'm glad your class liked it!
