SAM'S PLACE
(Buck Owens - Red Simpson)
« © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
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 Passadena
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
[ guitar ]
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

BE GLAD
(Kent Westberry - Justin Tubb)
« © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Be glad you've got what you've got when you've got it
Or you're gonna find out what you've got is gone
Make sure you know what you know when you know it
Or before you know it you'll be all alone
Take care what you do when you do if you do it
If you don't you won't have your baby long
Be glad you've got what you've got when you've got it
Or you're gonna find that what you've got is gone
Everybody envies you you lucky so and so
You should thank your lucky stars above
Just what she sees in you I guess I'll never know
It's a wonder you still have her love
Be glad you've got...
You'd better treat her better you'd better start right now
She deserves the best that you can do
She does everything for you the best that she knows how
That's the least she can expect from you
Be glad you've got...
Or you're gonna find that what you've got is gone

HONKY TONK MAN
(Johnny Horton - Tillman Franks - Howard Hausey)
« © '56 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
I'm a honky tonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
When my money's all gone I'm on the telephone
Hollerin' hey hey mama can your daddy come home
I'm livin' fast and dangerously but I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
That's when I wanna see the lights of town
I'm a honky tonk man...
[ guitar - steel ]
It takes a purty little gal and a jug of wine
That's what it takes to make a honky tonk mind
Jukebox a whirlin' that honky tonk sound
That's when I wanna lay my money down
I'm a honky tonk man...

WHITE LIGHTNING
(J.P. Richardson)

Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI »
Well in North Carolina way back in the hills
Lived my pappy and he had 'im a still
He brewed white lightning till the sun went down
Fill 'im a jug and he pass it around
Mighty mighty pleasing my pappy's corn squeezing
(Whew White lightning)
Well the G men T men revenoers too
Searching for the place where he made his brew
They were looking trying to book 'im but my pappy kept on cooking
(Whew White lightning)
[ guitar ]
Well I asked my pappy why he called his brew
White lightning stead of mountain dew
I took a little sip and then I knew
As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
Lightning started flashing thunder started crashing
(Whew White lightning)
Well the G men T men revenoers too...
[ steel ]
A city slicker came and said I mighty tough
I think I want to take that powerful stuff
He took one slug drank it right down
I heard him moan as he hit the ground
Mighty mighty pleasing your pappy's corn squeezing
(Whew White lightning)
Well the G men T men revenoers too...
