The secret is to stick with it - which I think you've already figured out; the "aha" moments will get more frequent. It just takes time and persistence.

And you're gonna get it. I can tell. You got the fire.

Did i miss your version, Jamey?

Can't find my stupid camera/computer cable, and have been too busy to do the excavation necessary to find it.

Just listen to Horace Trahan's version - mine sounds just like it.

Did he learn it from you?!

Ah, Charlie, thanks for the laugh - I needed that!

me too!

Thanks, Big. You've rekindled my enthusiasm for that tune. The version I like is Joe Falcon around 1963 with his missus on drums.
Yours is about as close as I've heard.
