I have a recording of this song sung by Leo McCaffrey and also found a set of lyrics in a James Healy book but Healy doesn't include the music. He only says the tune is "A Traditional American Tune".

First line is as follows: "I've a little racing mare called Sweet Marie"

Does anyone know the name of the tune used? or does someone have the abc/gif/jpeg of the music? If worse comes to worse I will transcribe it, but as with everyone, "so much to do and so little time".

Thanks bunches for any leads!
