What ever happened to Peggy Sue?

Unlike Wil, I'm a huge Buddy Holly fan. He has always been my father's favorite singer. I literally have every song, demo, jingle etc. that he ever recorded. While everyone knows the hit "Peggy Sue", not many know that Buddy wrote a follow up song right before he died called "Peggy Sue Got Married". (Some of you may know the terrible Nicolas Cage movie with the same title). Anyway, I wondered how Buddy would have written about Peggy Sue if they both would have lived to the present day. So I made Peggy Sue a drunk, lesbian murderer.

 

I was a little uncomfortable explaining it to my dad.
