Lyrics
I see you creepin' around
The speaker observes someone sneaking around.
Wasting away your life in this quiet town
Commenting on the person's life wasting away in a quiet town.
Baby girl you're so blue
Describing the person as sad or depressed ("so blue").
Cause you gave it all up for someone you barely knew
The person is regretful for giving everything to someone they barely knew.
It'll all be fine
Reassurance that everything will be okay.
The sun'll come out tomorrow and you know it shines
Optimism about the future; a metaphor for a brighter tomorrow.
It'll always be true
An affirmation that the speaker's feelings for "Peggy Sue" are enduring.
Spend my whole life waiting for my Peggy Sue
The speaker has spent their whole life waiting for Peggy Sue.
And I don't know
Expressing uncertainty about Peggy Sue's identity and desires.
Just who you are and where you wanna be
Questioning Peggy Sue's self-awareness and life goals.
Where you lay your head at night when you start gettin' sleepy
Asking where Peggy Sue sleeps at night when she gets tired.
Hash pipe, hunny, baby, cutie, come on home and let me love you
Using endearing terms, urging Peggy Sue to come home for love.
Oh come on home and let me love you
Repetition of the plea for Peggy Sue to come home for love.
You move so well
Complimenting Peggy Sue's graceful movement.
In your gritty old scuffed up pair of tennis shoes
Describing Peggy Sue's worn-out tennis shoes.
And I can tell
Noticing that Peggy Sue is confused by the way someone talks to her.
That the way he talks is leavin' you confused
The speaker doesn't mind Peggy Sue having fun, even if it hurts.
But I don't mind
Encouraging Peggy Sue to enjoy herself and break the speaker's heart.
Girl have your fun and break this heart of mine
Confident that one day, the speaker will be the only one left for Peggy Sue.
Cause I know it's true
Reiterating the belief that the speaker is the ultimate choice for Peggy Sue.
That one day i'll be the only one left for you
Reassuring Peggy Sue about the speaker's lasting commitment.
And I don't know
Similar to line 9, expressing uncertainty about Peggy Sue's identity and desires.
Just who you are and where you wanna be
Repeating the question about where Peggy Sue sleeps when feeling adventurous.
Where you lay your head at night when you start gettin' freaky

Hash pipe, hunny, baby, cutie, come on home and let me love you
