Downtown's little Peggye Sue
Gonna have a sniff of glue
In the basement out of sight
Going higher than a kite
All right! All right!
She's going out tonight
Tonight she'll be out of her mind
Dad is in the donut shop
Mom is playing easy pop
Peggy's asking for a light
Watch out, she's dynamite
All right!...
Can you see her point of view?
It's so hard to be so cool
Schoolday's over, what to do?
All alone, feeling blue
Right, all right
After the pesticide
Right, all right
Ready for a fight
She'll be out tonight
(Go!)
Peggy took a holiday
In her mind and lost a way
In the morning doctor said
"Sorry, but her mind is dead!
All right! ...
All right! All right!
Going out tonight
All right! All right!
Ready for a fight
All right! All right!
Going out tonight
All right!
