I've never heard of this guy before but he has a fantastic voice 👏
REAL MUSIC FIOR A CHANGE,SUNG BY A GREAT SINGER.WE NEED MORE OF YHIS TYPE OF MUSIC.❤
First time I’ve heard this song. Rob does a beautiful job. What a beautiful yet sad song. Life is precious and youth so fleeting. Looking back is so bitter sweet, things I could have done differently, things I failed to do, wonderful moments I still treasure. Rob brings that all back to me with his wonderful voice.
Thanks for your comments.
I love Robs music. maggie is one of his most favorite. But it is hard to pick among your children, I love them all only in different ways, like the Beatles!! Rob was amazing in his musical brand. He was very special !!!!
My mom used to sing this song…our roots being in Nova Scotia. Brings back some great memories.
I've had this song stuck in my head for the past four weeks. What a wonderful affliction!
Rob brought Maggie out of his heart of heart's. It has a unique touch and affects us all. Thanks for your comment and subscribing.
Well said!!!!
He never got the recognition he deserved. GREAT singer.
My grandpa used to sing this song to me before he died sometimes I listen to it and think of him. It really is a wonderful song.
my grampa "Pop" used to sing it to us too..... His Mom was Maggir Mc Namara...married Anson Thompson.....a railroader and she washed clothes by the track and bought thr property ( 3 village lots) where i and all 8 of my sisters and bros were born.........
So great love his music
Kudos to Mr. Robson. The most memorable rendition of that song for me was watching my uncle at 430 in the morning,stewed to the gills hanging on to the front door at full volume. I was about 14 at the time. Laughed so hard I nearly cried. I will never forget that scene as long as I live!
My granddad picked this on the banjo and replaced "Maggie" with my grandmom's name. Beautiful song, beautiful memories.
How fortunate you have memories ❣️
This song is meant for the ages. No better tune to express the love of a man for his wife.
This song was sung by my father passed in 24 Apr. 2014, and sung by me and my wife too in the same feeling shown by him. I believe in being sung by my son and my daughter in law as same as me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful but heartbreaking song..
I have heard many vergins of this song and I have to say ,this is the very best.
Thank you!!
this was my grandmas favorite song. she sang when i was a kid
it's a standard for mant generations and hopefully continue to touch more hearts.
What a beautiful voice this man had. Sad it is the first time I have heard him?
You sing this song with a heartfelt voice, and the feelings from within.
Thanks Rob
You Sing it beautiful.
My mother who was Irish used to sing this song to me, I love it.
I find myself playing one of Robs songs to set my tone for the day ! My dose ! 😇
His voice has a tone for the calming of the soul.
I love the voice and the smooth way the music and voice go together
This version is wonderful
Never heard this guy before. Thanks alot for this.
Never get tired of listening❤❤ to this song!!
🥰😊Love the song very much.
I hear many singers sing this song, but you are among the best for voice clarity and the fiddle just adds to the song. Well done a good song, you are my favorite. Thanks for posting this. Love it
Thanks a lot.
Maggie was my wife's great-great-aunt and my wife is named after her!
ADORE THIS GRAND OLD SONG👵🍀💚🎶
My Grandfather Bass used to play it on the fiddle -- so too does his son -- my Grandmother was Maggie. What talent!
This is my grandpa
xx xx x grandpa
Lucky you!
Reminds me of West va part of me will alwaysbe there my home Shirley niemiec
My Granda used to sing this to my Granny Maggie
Such a wonderful man. Love this song. Reminds me of my old Appalachian Hills home
Finally figured this song out for so many years. It was in Tales Of The Darkside in the episode Case Of The Stubborns. An actor who plays Grandpa Titus (Eddie Branken) sits in his rocking chair and sings this song somewhat. He also was the shop keeper in home alone 2. Grandpa Titus gets interrupted as his son walks out. The grandson is played by Christian Slater when he was 15 years old. You can find it on youtube. It is a very good episode!
It always reminds of drunks singing it back in the eighties.
Love this version Peace be with you . I live here in Hamilton Ont Canada and my wife's name is Maggie and I'm George .The Lyrics were written here in Hamilton about 5 miles from where I live by George Washington Johnson for his wife Maggie Clark .Yes they are burried in the Cemetaries in this area .The part about the white breakers is out on Lake Ontario (Hamilton Harbour) We have what we call The Mountain here and at the edge of it he could look out on The Bay and Lake
George, It's good to hear from you. Thank you for providing more history on this song. George is a name that continues from the past and into the future as it's a powerful name that will continue. Take care of Maggie as she has a wonderful name too!

love the song, wonderful voice. thank you for filling us in with a bit of history. thanks very much.
Thanks for sharing both the song and the history of it Maurice! As one who taught English for over 34 years, it was always a part of my teaching to look back at the past and share lyrics of some of the great songs of the past - lyrics with such powerful memories and feelings. This was one of them. Also this is the first time I ever heard Rob sing. Tremendous! I don't know if there are any around, but if there are some CDs of his songs, I would definitely purchase one or more to add to my collection. Again, thanks for sharing this beautiful song!
Beautiful soulful and from the heart!!!
was looking at all the versions of this lovely song - I had never heard Rob before - but this is I think my favourite - what a lovely voice he has!
My mother played this on her banjo. I always loved this song. Reminds of Mom and I miss her so much!❤
Remember it well in the early 80's when Foster & Allen sang it in Scotland
Son; you’re grandpa did more for that song than any other musician I have heard,, My great grandmother (Luray V) would cry whenever she heard it, Grandpa Rob gave it character and authenticity. Ed C.
Edwin, Thanks for posting your comments about your great grandmother and grandpa Rob. Rob had such wonderful talent and a remarkable voice. He could hold an audience as well as any popular performer in the business.
Edwin, I'm letting you know that your grandpa Rob's songs are touching people all around the world. I'm getting comments everyday from people listing to his smooth voice. I know youwould be very pleased to hear the news.
Wonderful, wonderful!!!
Love and respect your Grandpa's Singing.
You're so blessed to have the Grandpa with such a beautiful voice, When will we hear you sing with Grandpa?

~This song has been echoing in my mind for two days! This is the best version to share!~ Thanks!
My neighbor and late uncle Rob. Nice to hear his voice again. Thank you.
+Travis Shan
Thank you for your comments. Rob had a voice and soul that could grab one's heart in his music. He made it look so relaxed and easy. I'm glad to know that he was your uncle.
Thank you again. I have many polaroids of Uncle Rob in old photo albums. He was something else.

Just beautiful I listen to this song and memories of me and my nan come flowing back xx
remember days gone by when we were young and love was new
My mom used to sing this song as she went about her day. It made me happy to here it again. Mr.Mashburn
Dose a good job singing my old memory. Thank you Sir.
Love this song very much!! Rob left this world too soon.
What a voice and song !!! I love it !!!🖐👍
Thank you, Maggie Rose, what a beautiful name.
It's amazing and a blessing how memories let us relive the past with the one's we loved in the days gone by. Some call it the "Good Old Days"
The most beautiful song I've heard in a long time!
wow I miss hearing Rob pick and sing! thank you for posting these!!
love this, a friend worked for me in Mobile,AL....and he played this song first song he ever learned....now he has passed and i moved to Cherokee
remember rob coming to the house with LB Soles been we would play and sing . thanks so glad these were posted miss him so much
+Mark tatham Rob and L.B. were really a pair. Rob had such a beautiful voice and L.B. knew the exact time to come in with his high tenor. I understand L.B. continues singing. I've noticed him on videos from the Townsend gathering.
Thank you Maurice for posting these songs of Rob. I miss him so much. He recorded one of my songs, Misty Mountain Morning and we toured with him for a bit.
Such a good soul...and so missed. Thanks again!
Mash burn fame
An outstanding song and rendition.
beautiful singer I'm so relaxed
Now I understand better why my grandfather would get pissed off when I played this with a modern beat . . . but he was a cranky old bastard in any case.
Grew up hearing Mama sing and hum this while doing dishes and housework and I'd tease her 'bout singing aunt Maggie's song again and she said well...you grow up and write one about Lilly and someday some Mama can hum a song about me to their children. Sorry Ma ! but I do replace aunt Maggie's name with Lilly and sometimes my wife Sarah's name when I sing it. Rob does a great version and has a great voice for this type of song.
Kerry is a bit modest. He's a gifted songwriter and plays a mean guitar.
Best version I have heard so far.
Rob does a good job but the first time that I heard it was by Foster and Allen original....I loved it....
What a. Voice i listen all the time
VERY NICE JOB...THANK YOU
처음듣는 곡인데 참으로 듣기가 좋내요.올려 주시어 감사합니다 .

3 people don't like songs from the heart.
johnmorris008
Hey John! Some dear folks, perhaps including those 3 who don't like the song, never had the enriching youth scenes like we did in our post WW2 era. How could people of this age ever imagine the nostalgia that we oldies have of our innocent growing-up years!!!
You win the interwebs lol.
I've only ever heard this song performed to a swing-music beat, from two 1930s movies. It was typical at that time to redo old songs - which were no longer copyrighted, which was an important point - in swing.
Beautiful.
Beautiful X
There are many versions of this song but none compare to Robs.
wow beautiful singing 100-100
one of his best!
I thank Rob Mashburn was a lot better than most of those singers on the Grand Old Opera. Great singer and picker.
My Dad seldom ever sang he had a rough voice like mine but he sang this for Mum
I'm listening to this song at 1.25x speed and it's amazing!!!! Haha, give it a try!
Thanks, I will.
@@erwinmge wow a polite response on UA-cam haha your welcome and thank you!
Joe, I set it up today at 1.25x and 1.33x speed. You may be on to something as it's very interesting. Thank you for listening. Great comment!
@@erwinmge thank you man peace and love. I will try it at 1.33x speed thanks again!!!
Foster and Allen has a big hit with that song in Ireland but that version is superb.That dude is a fantastic singer and guitar picker
목소리 너무 좋아요.슬퍼요^^
Give me another box of Kleenex.
Thanks for postin'.
참좋다목소리아
What a voice, why didn't hear of this Guy, was he blacklisted?
Does anyone know where I can find the Johnny Reid version
Thank you very much, Maurice. Out of dozens of versions of this song, I like Mashburn's best. I tried but failed to buy it online. Would you please let me (and others) know where to get it.
Thank you Guangzhao Li for your kind comments. I'm sorry to inform you that due to the death of Rob Mashburn more than a decade ago, the recordings that he made are no longer in print and are not available. I've tried to locate family members to no avail. If I'm ever successful, I will post information here. I intend to leave this tune on UA-cam and hopefully you can enjoy here. Thanks for listening.
Many thanks for replying. What a pity!
Yes, but George is buried in Pasadena California
Makes me think of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher and their friendship.
