It's a charming song. I've made a MIDI of it.

It's interesting to compare the versions of it on YouTube. With Harry Hibbs, the accordion is so loud I can't hear the melody. The video where somebody (I think the first name was Poss) plays it on accordion is wonderful, but I could never transcribe the song with all those ornaments in the way.

So I went with this one:

The singer will never win praise for his warm, resonant voice, but he makes it clear what the notes are and what the words are, and that's a good thing.
