Sheb Wooley - The Purple People Eater [20세기를 빛낸 팝] 

Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky It had one long horn and one big eye I commenced to shakin' and I said, hoo-eee It looks like a purple people eater to me [Refrain] It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me - One eye? Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree I said Mr. Purple People Eater, don't eat me I heard him say in a voice so gruff I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're so tough [Refrain] - One horn? I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line He said eatin' purple people and it sure is fine But that's not the reason that I came to land I wanna get a job in a rock 'n' roll band Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, under-growed, flyin' purple people eater We wear short shorts - friendly little people eater What a sight to see - Ow! And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground And he started to rock, a-really rockin' around It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune Sing a bop-bop-a-loopa-loppa-lum-bam-boom Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, under-growed, flyin' purple people eater I like short shorts - flyin' purple people eater What a sight to see - Purple people? And then he went on his way and then what do ya know I saw him last night on a TV show He was blowing it out, a-really knockin' em dead Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head [20세기를 빛낸 팝]

이곡은 "20세기를 빛낸 팝송 히트곡100선" 배철수의 음악캠프(2002년 11월방송) 라디오 프로그램에서 선정 한 것이다. 100위부터 1위까지 하나씩 올려봐야겠다. 또 올렸던 음악중 예전에 MBC 김기덕의 골든디스크에서 선정한 "한국인이 좋아하는 팝 100곡", 코리아팝 사이트에서 선정한 "한국인이 좋아하는 팝 200곡"을 올리고 있다. 이자료는 객관적인 자료가 아니고 라디오 프로그램과 선정 당시의 팬투표와 해당 방송국의 기준에따라 선정된걸로 알고있다.
