That would be Freddie Fender. I did some more thinking on this and you are right about someone released it before Freddie Fender. That would be Cookie and the Cupcakes. A good question about a good song.

Harry Belafonte

Answer 3

The song is a fixture at many Australian sporting events. It was performed at the Closing Ceremony of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney by singer Slim Dusty, as well as at the Opening Ceremony of the subsequent Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games by Australian pop star Kylie Minogue. It was previously sung at the Opening Ceremony of the 1982 Commonwealth Games in Brisbane by Rolf Harris. It is sung during the pre-game entertainment of the Australian Football League Grand Final each year.

The song has been recorded by many Australian musicians and singers, including Peter Dawson, The Seekers, Tenor Australis, Thomas Edmonds, Rolf Harris and Lazy Harry.

In 1958, Bill Haley and His Comets recorded a version with new lyrics entitled "Rockin' Matilda." (Haley's version is about a beautiful Australian girl named Matilda.)

Bands from other nations, including The Irish Rovers and the Red Army Choir, have also recorded the song.
