"Maggie" fiddle songs

I’m looking for fiddle songs about Maggies. That is my daughter’s name, and she gets a kick out of it when I play any of them. So far I’ve found:

  • Sleepy Maggie
  • Drowsy Maggie
  • Maggie in the Woods
  • Little Maggie
  • Are ye sleepin’ Maggie?
  • Over the Moor to Maggie
  • Pretty Maggie Morrisey
  • Maggie
  • When You and I were Young, Maggie (not really a fiddle tune per se, I know, but it’s still pretty)

Of the top of your head, are you aware of any other “Maggie” fiddle tunes? I’ve done a pretty extensive googling on this, and I’d hate to have anyone spend time covering the same ground. All I’m looking for is any titles that spring to mind.

Thanks.

Add “Maggie’s Lament” to that list of songs I’ve already found.:smack:

Well, I’ve never actually heard “Maggie Mae” played on a fiddle, but I think it would sound OK. The lyrics would be pretty inappropriate, though. :smiley:

How about songs with Maggies in them? “Finnegan’s Wake” is a good song, sounds great on fiddle (as well it should), and includes a Maggie O’Connor in one verse.
