Pink Peg Slacks

I went down town last night, gonna dig a show

When I passed a display window of a big department store

Well I looked inside this window

Man, all filled up with racks

And down there near the bottom was a crazy pair of slacks

I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat

Well-well yeah how can I go cattin'

Without crazy pink peg slacks

Well I walked up to a salesman, I said mister I'm flat broke

But I gotta have them pink slacks

He said, man is this a joke?

Well I asked him how much money

He said, add up four and eight

He said, man them pants is crazy

Them's pink, rayon acetate

I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat

Well-yeah how can I go cattin' without crazy pink peg slacks

Well I went to see my baby, asked her for some dough

Said well you know I love you honey

What you need this money for?

Well I told her about them peggers, I found across down town

Got a sawbuck from her daddy

Yeah and I turned my Ford around

I gotta have 'em, yeah-well I need 'em for this cat

Well-yeah how can I go cattin' without crazy pink peg slacks

I saved my Ford into a stop, rushed into the store

I said man I got a sawbuck, he said you need two bucks more

I said, man can' t I charge it?

He said, man we don't get these things for free

I said, mister you just don't realize

What these pink peggers mean to me
