"Mean Old Timer, He's got grey hair, Mean Old Timer he just don't care
Got no compassion, thinks its a sin
All he does is sit around an play the Mandolin"
Or you could March forth/fourth:
Washington Post
Under the Double Eagle
Stars and Stripes Forever
March of the Toy Soldiers
Rainbow Connection
Also Star of the County Down is often played in 3/4. Beautiful tune. Howard Levy did a lyrical harmonica version on one of the Flectone albums, Cosmic Hippo I think.

Even more fun, play your 3/4 waltz in 4/4. Tastefully now...
(Disclosure: We play "Lover" in both 3/4 and 4/4, consecutively in our arrangement.)

[Our recent arrival]
Or set a good old 4/4 camp meeting melody in 3/4.
I set the hymn There Is A Fountain Filled With Blood in 3/4, there is something so primal about tremoloing the double-stopped half notes in that chorus!

Amazing Grace

Howard Levy, the best harmonica player I have seen. He can play Amazing Grace on both ends of the harp at the same time. It's to bad he doesn't play bluegras
Livet i Finnskogarna is mostly done on the accordion; it's credited to Carl Jularbo, but probably traditional. Wonder whether Vaughn Horton knew the original or whether the similarity with Mocking Bird Hill is just coincidence.
Kärleksvals(en) -- there are several songs with that title; are you referring to Ulrik Neumann's song? Often done on Neumann's instrument, the guitar:

The song was featured in a Swedish movie, Vaxdockan (Wax Doll), whence (I suppose) the Swedish title.
A vocal version featuring Neumann's daughter Ulla (in both her languages), and son Mikael:

A few more waltz favorites: Fiddler's Waltz (by Benny Martin)
Sobre las Olas (Juventino Rosas)
La Valse Hot (Sonny Rollins)
The Ballo Liscio folders that are on dropbox are full of great waltzes.
