Tab
To play this your must follow the ones and twos.
One represents regular play of the harmonica, but while playing the two lines, you must keep the slide pressed in.  So all the notes on the number tow lines should have a < in front of them but I am a little too lazy to do that.  
And also make sure to check out the file link.
It is what I used to make these tabs so you can use it for reference on the change of tempo that increasingly gets faster throughout the entire song.  Have fun with this one.  I like play with two different harmonicas to get different sounds.
