There was a jolly swagman camped by a billabong, under the shade of a coolibah tree. And he sang as he sat as he waited ’til his billy boiled “Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me?”
The swagman was arrested and they charged him with vagrancy, the loggers chopped down the coolibah tree. And once the trees where cleared and planning permission granted, in moved a large construction company.
There are no more songs nor swagmen waltzing anywhere, Matilda hasn’t danced for a half century. And as for the billabong, that is now a tyre yard that has an offer of buy one get one free!
Fun, family and more
