Why It Matters

Originally adapted from a Cornish mining chant ("Oggy Oggy Oggy"), this became Australia's signature sporting cry in the late 1980s. It's used across all sports — cricket, rugby, swimming — but at football World Cups it takes on special meaning because the Socceroos are always the underdog. The 2022 Round of 16 run in Qatar was Australia's best-ever result, and this chant echoed through Al Janoub Stadium.

Waltzing Matilda (Crowd Version)

Pre-match and emotional moments — Australia's unofficial anthem

Lyrics

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 Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong Under the shade of a coolibah tree And he sang as he sat and waited till his billy boiled 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 watched and waited till his billy boiled You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda with me Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong You'll never catch me alive said he And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda with me

Rhythm Guide

WALTZ-ing ma-TIL-da, WALTZ-ing ma-TIL-da / you'll COME a-WALTZ-ing ma-TIL-da with ME

Melody: Traditional Australian folk song by Banjo Paterson (1895)

Why It Matters

Many Australians consider "Waltzing Matilda" the true national anthem — it captures the larrikin spirit of Australia far better than "Advance Australia Fair." At football matches, it's sung with beers raised and arms around strangers. The song tells the story of a swagman (drifter) and his defiance — perfectly matching the Socceroos' underdog mentality.
