Lyrics:

PINK PEG SLACKS
Eddie Cochran

I went downtown last night, gonna dig a show
Walked past the display window of a big department store
When I looked inside this window, hangin' off of the racks
Down there near the bottom was a great pair of pink peg slacks
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash & wear crazy pink peg slacks

Well, I walked up to a salesman & said, 'Mister, I'm flat broke
But I gotta have them pink slacks.' He said, 'What is this, man, a joke?'
Well, I asked him how much money; he said, 'Add 4 & 8'
I said, 'Man, them pants is crazy; them's pink pair of acetate!'
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash & wear crazy pink peg slacks

I went to see my baby, asked her for some dough
She said, 'Well, you know, I love you, honey, but what you need this money for?'
Well, I talked about them baggers I saw across downtown
She got a sawbuck from her daddy & I turned my Ford around
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash & wear crazy pink peg slacks

Brought the Ford to a stop, rushed into the store
Said, 'Man, I got a sawbuck.' He said, 'No, you need 2 bucks more'
I said, 'What's the matter, can't I charge you?'
He said, 'You don't get these things for free'
I said, 'But Mister, you just don't know what those pink peggers mean to me!'
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash & wear crazy pink peg slacks
