Slovak Song
Played AABCCBCCDD. Transcribed from the album "Halld a tárogató hangját (Hear the Sound of the Tárogató!)" by László Kiss Gy. The original was in F. Played at about 160 BPM at the start, speeds up a bit on the last time through part D to about 175 BPM.

Do reckon this might go nicely in a set together with 3 Blind Mice?

Parts of it sound Russian.
The taragato is a Hungarian instrument a sort of wooden soprano sax. My guess is Laszlo Kiss is probably from th Hungarian minority in Slovakia.

MIDI file
Here's a somewhat better MIDI file that sounds more like the original, with a clarinet patch, a little ornamentation, and a quicker tempo:
