SONG: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
