Peggy Legg Lyrics - Terry Allen

There's a one legged woman on the dance floor 

And that one leg's so pretty she don't need no more 

She got a graceful demeanor ah, pure ballerina with a beautiful heart 

Who gives a damn if she's one leg short? 

'Cause if you knew Peggy Legg 

You'd be down at her knee and beg and beg 

For her to just give you some time a day 

But she'd just blow you a kiss, boy 

"And twirl's a twirl", this is all she'd say 

"We all got missing parts right from the start we got to live with 

But all our body can do is just stumble on through what God gives to it 

All you need is your heart and just enough of a brain 

To get your half ass in out of the rain" 

Now that one legged woman's on the bandstand 

She sings a full bodied song about a one legged man 

She kinda jiggles her thigh when she sings of this guy 

And the perfect balance of life 

'Bout how all he's got left is just what she's got right 

And if you knew Peggy Legg 

You'd be down at her knee and beg and beg 

For her to just give you some time a day 

But she'd just blow you a kiss, boy 

"Twirl's a twirl", this is all she'd say 

"We all got missing parts right from the start we got to live with 

But all our body can do is just stumble on through what God gives to it 

All you need is your heart and just enough of a brain 

To get your half ass in out of the rain" 

If you knew Peggy Legg 

You'd be down at her knee and beg and beg 

For her to just give you some time a day 

But she'd just blow you a kiss, boy 

And twirl's a twirl, blows you away
