The Ballad of Peggy and Col Lyrics & Tabs by Weddings Parties Anything
The Ballad of Peggy and Col
guitar chords lyrics
Peggy's been into town been walking around
Been drinking with the boys
Been spending some money on herself for a change
Been making so much noise
But Col just sits on a bus to Perth
He got tears in his eyes
20 years down the drain
Now the world just passes by
She's done up her hair She's gone and bought a new dress
And don't she look a sight
She's been to a party to a restaurant
And Peggy feels alright
But Col's been drinking way too hard
He's got bags beneath his eyes
And he's got ten bucks left no job no wife
Its enough to make you cry
Now when Col came in he was a dreadful mess
And the kids they just stared blank
He had dirt on his face he had holes in his shoes
Not one penny in the bank
Meanwhile Peg was with her man in town
all dressed up like a doll
But she drops it all she goes running home
Cos when it all boiled down to it Peggy loved Col
