Don't know of an existing arrangement, but our band used to do it really, really straight and corny for the first time through, me playing it in straight harp... (we did it in F, I think). For the second round we bluesified and swung the beat... and I switched to crossharp (Bb harp) and it worked to great effect.
Have fun, my friend! Hope your harps are Y2K compliant!
