Please, get a recent copy of tcpdump and *read its manpage*:

-x Print each packet (minus its link level header) in
hex. The smaller of the entire packet or snaplen
bytes will be printed.
-X When printing hex, print ascii too. Thus if -x is
also set, the packet is printed in hex/ascii. This
is very handy for analysing new protocols. Even if
-x is not also set, some parts of some packets may
be printed in hex/ascii.
