Omg OP, I registered only to bring you the answer you have been looking for (hopefully). I don't know if you are still around but the tune you might be looking for might be this (fast forward to 14 seconds to get to the tune)



The tune is from a french movie called "La soupe aux choux" ("the cabbage soup"), with Louis de Funes, very well known here. It is the main tune of the movie - if you type musique la soupe aux choux in youtube you will find it.

It's from around 1981 - the theme song of the movie became wildly popular and still is 40 years later - very recognisable here. It was remixed so many times by so many different artists, you might have heard a version of it - perhaps not the exact theme.
It's a folk/synthpop tune played on keyboard, inspired by some Bourbon traditional tune.
I hope I am not mistaken and this is the tune you were looking for - albeit perhaps not the exact one, you might have to dig a little more to find the version you heard!

Cheers
