TU MARIES MA FILLE (You married my daughter). French-Canadian, Reel (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'B. The first strain of "Tu maries ma fille" is well-known under several titles, including "Buck Creek Girl," ""Buffalo Breakdown," "Goin' Up Chaney," "Hop Along Sally," "Kelton's Reel," "Off with Your Jacket," "Old Dad," "Old Mother Goodwin," "Pig Town (The)," "Pigtown Fling," "Stoney Point (1)," "Stony Point (1)," "Stony Point Reel," "Warm Stuff," "Wild Horse," and "Wild Horses at Stony Point."
