    Not THE "Waltzing Matilda" surely!!?? Was it the tradition song? Or maybe
it was the old Red Gum "The Band Played Waltzing Matilda" version?? You know
what I'm talking about here don't you Uri?...

"Once a jolly swagman,
 camped by a billabong.
 Under the shade of a willow tree."...

    Was it that song? If so they almost ANYBODY could have done it since it's a
sort of Australian folk song based off an old poem.
