I’m 79 yrs old and have lived in Oz since I was 4. My parents were Hungarian and were refugees from WW2 and arrived here in 1949. As a kid I just wanted to be like all the other kids and become fully Aussie as quickly as possible. I’m about as Aussie as you can get ….i was bitten by a snake when I was 10: and can play a didgeridoo. I love Australia and reckon it’s the best country in the world and of course I love Waltzing Matilda. For those who don’t know a swagman is a homeless person who carries his bedroll (swag) over his shoulder. Matilda is the nickname for his bedroll (swag) and carrying it all day is “waltzing” his Matilda.

Beers up for Rhea Ripley.. she found her mate.. heres hoping buddy waltzes her for life.

Literally only found out about this legend in 2024 .

This song is used for Vietjet Air - a Vietnamese low-cost airline in their International flights to Australia. It is used at boarding music.

He was a good mate of my gramps...

Listen from México 🇲🇽

Why is this my lockdown song at school?

Notice his cute smile in the end!!!

Got introduced into it by sir Pratchett. No worries!

Should be the Australian national anthem

I remember me and my brother singing this song together at the normanton hall absolutely love it

Missing slim

Bloody Oath this is Australia 😊

Gone but not forgotten Slim Dusty will have a place in our hearts forever

I grew up as a young Greek immigrant in Quebec, in the 70s and 80s. Learned that song from my Grade 6 teacher, a grand Scottish lady. Good times, good times... Why was life sooooooo much simpler then ?

💌

Very possible.

No one will beat Slim Dusty.

The King of Country

I've always felt that Australians were just rednecks with funnier accents than we have

Sounds real down to the earth, mate.... Salute

True Aussie treated everyone equal he would be shocked at how it’s changed shame there’s no more guys like him.

My great grandad helped Slim write these words

Christina started work at 06:00 finish work at 10:00 Amiee said the shopping come in delivery at 7:00 to at house.

This is not the full version. The version I remember is it saying the man jumps in the billa bong.

A hidden Gem

Are they Min Min lights? Lol.

I am from South Korea and I learned this song at school! It's awesome

My grandpa sang me this song when I was a kid. He had been a sailor in US Merchant Marine in WWII and learned the song from some Aussie Diggers he had befriended in the Southwest Pacific in 1945. He grew up in Arizona and said the Aussies reminded him of people back home, so he got on with them quite well in Borneo.

they just don’t make music like this anymore 🤌😩❤️

♫ I'd love to have a beer with ...♫

In the words of he Austrayn diplomat Sir Les Patterson himself; "fakin beautiful!"

my 5th grade teacher, John McGlaughlin played for us this song one day in his classroom. He explained what the lyrics meant, although i don't remember a ton of what they were about. but i did remember the chorus note-for-note even though it's been since the early 90s since i've heard this song. i played it just now on a whim and it's precisely how i remember it 30 years ago. Now that's a memorable chorus!. RIP Mr McGlaughlin

When I was 7years old I was taught this song in my school Clarence High School in Bangalore India 60years later at the age of 67 I was blessed to come to Australia the land to the origin of this song Thank God and God bless Australia
