I've seen your picture

Your name in lights above it

This is your big debut

It's like a dream come true

And when you smile for the camera

I know they're love it

I got your pin shot

I keep it with your letter

Done up in blueprint blue

It sure looks good on you

So won't you smile for the camera

I know I'll love you better

Peg

It will come back to you

Peg

It will come back to you

Then the shutter falls

You see it all in 3-D

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Millicent Lilian "Peg" Entwistle (5 February 1908 – c. 16 September 1932) was aWelsh-born English stage and screen actress. Entwistle began her stage career in 1925, appearing in several Broadway productions. She appeared in only one film, Thirteen Women, which was released after her death.

Entwistle gained notoriety after she jumped to her death from the "H" on the Hollywoodland sign in September 1932 at the age of 24.

The notion that Peg Enthistle was the inspiration for "Peg" is (or was) erroneous!

Question: My question is about the song "Peg". I recently saw a documentary on Peg Entwistle, a young actress who committed suicide by jumping off the Hollywood sign, it made me wonder if Peg was about her. So my question very simply put...Is the song "Peg" about a real person, if so then who is she? Submitted By: Susan Johnson

Answer: The song "Peg" was indeed about a real person, but that person was obviously nowhere near as real and compelling as Peg Entwistle. So now the song is about her. Okay?
