Sam's Place

"Sam's Place" is a 1967 country song written by Buck Owens and Red Simpson and recorded by Owens. The single went to number one on the country charts spending three weeks at the top and a total of thirteen weeks on the country charts.^[1]

The song is about a honky-tonk called "Sam's Place," of which the singer is a regular all-night patron ("You can always find me down at Sam's Place from the setting sun until the break of day."). Other patrons include two women who are nicknamed for their dancing abilities and whose real names happen to rhyme with their respective hometowns: "Shimmy-Shakin'" Tina from Pasadena and "Hootchie-Kootchie" Hattie from Cincinnati.
