Repeat what the bass and guitar do during the verse and then go to the chorus.

Lyrics
Verse:
Mother said come home
Father said come home
Sister said come home
So my friend said come home
And I said
Chorus:
Let me be I'm allright
Can't you see I'm just fine
Little skinny okay
I'm asleep anyway
Verse:
Then I heard the voice
Said son you have a choice
I then slapped my face
Chorus:
Let me be I'm okay
I'm awake anyway
It's too bright over here
I can shift and I'll steer
Little skinny okay
I'm asleep anyway
To jam this song the right way you gotta groove with it.
It's a great swing blues song so have fun with it.
