This tune has more names than most. If I'm getting this right, it was originally written by Petters Erik Eriksson, titled "Grinds Hans Jässpödspolska." Then I suppose some French diato player learned it and called it "La Petite Jaune" (https://youtu.be/iDAG-VxMZOU, https://youtu.be/uffbHR-H904). Of course Andy Cutting picked it up (https://youtu.be/U0FdlCMAcuU) and was evidently told by the Swedes that they had learned it in C, but they play it in G ("C i G"), so he calls it "CEG." I suspect I'm playing it very differently from how Eriksson originally wrote it.

Anyway, it's a very happy tune. And I'm playing it in E because it sounds better on my accordion. Enjoy!
