Waltzing Matilda tells the story of a swagman who camps by a billabong (waterhole). While he's there, a jumbuck (ram) comes down to take a drink at the billabong.

Banjo Paterson based Waltzing Matilda on a true story.The central character is based on a man named Samuel "Frenchy" Hoffmeister. In September 1894, on the Dagworth sheep station north of Winton, some shearers were in a strike that turned violent.
