Pink Peg Slacks

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
