I've been to cities that never close down
From New York to Rio and Olde London Towne
But no matter how far or how wide I roam
I still call Australia home
I'm always traveling, I love being free
And so I keep leaving the sun and the sea
But my heart lies waiting over the foam
I still call Australia home
All the sons and daughters spinning 'round the world
Away from their family and friends
Yet the world gets older and colder
It's good to know where your journey end
(Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda)
Oh, 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
(Instrumental)
Someday we'll all be together again
When all of the ships come back to the shore
I realize something I've always known
I still call Australia
Still call Australia
Still call Australia home
(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
