Some Folk songs, especially Folk ballads, are often in three four time. Three four time is also known as waltz time. A song in three four time has the ^ time signature at the beginning of the music notation. It indicates there are three beats (three quarter notes) in one bar of ^ time. As there are only three beats to the bar the standard alternating bass is modified to fit into three beats.
