There's a place down the street we call Sam's Place
It starts a jumpin' every evenin' when the sun goes down
You can always find me here down at Sam's Place
For that's where the gang all hangs around
There's ole shimmy skakin' Tena, she hails from Pasadena
She's always got a big smile on her face
There's ole hootchy cootchy Heddy, she comes from Cincinnati
Yeah, there's always a party at Sam's Place
Well, they've got a swingin' band down at Sam's Place
You can hear 'em pickin' twenty blocks away
And they're playin' country music down at Sam's Place
From the setting sun until the break of day
There's ole shimmy skakin' Tena
And I'll meet you tonight at Sam's Place
