Å jenta å ja AKA - "Harry's Hambo."
The title means "My girl and me."
This is a Norwegian folk song, the words to which appear in a 1901 collection of folk songs and ballads. The melody is used for the Swedish hambo or Norwegian pols dance. North Dakota-born Norwegian-American fiddler Harry Johnson introduced it to fiddlers in Washington State, who called it "Harry's Hambo."
