Glenn Miller - Peggy, The Pin Up Girl lyrics

Peggy Jones had her picture took It got in "Life" and it got in "Look" Then the cameras began to click And that my friend really did the trick Then her fortunes began to climb She appeared on "The March of Time" All the boys in the Army camps Wanted her picture for their postage stamp She is the 'sweetheart' of Plenty of soldiers, Plenty of Sailors, Thousands of Marines She's the girl they pin-up in the barracks She's the girl they pin-up on the wall In a plane or on a train She's a prince she's a pal She was there when they landed Down at Guadalcan*l She's the chick they all pick in the service And they take her all over the world We'll take up findin' a Queen In a dime magazine She's Peggy the Pin-Up Girl! Peggy pinned-up from the toes up Makes a fella turn his nose up When he sees Lamoure or Grable on the screen Even a voice that's so disturbin' Like Judy Garland or Miss Durbin Can't compare to my pin-up queen (They can't compare to my pin-up queen) So Ginger Rogers started howlin' And Miss Powell threw the towel in Peggy's dancin' caused a heat wave up in Nome She has Betty Hutton's vigor Lanna Turner's cla**y figure And the cha**is that made La**ie come home On the double! (and the cha**is that made La**ie come home) She rates high with each guy in the Air Corps She rates high with each guy on the ground Oh this sweet little chick is the pick of the crew And she just suits the taste of every waist gunner too They were there in the air over Berlin And the voice sounded clear as a pearl "Pilot to bombardier, come on boys lets drop one here" For Peggy, the Pin-Up Girl!
