Chuck Berry Lyrics

Album: Rockin' at the Hops

Too Pooped To Pop Lyrics

Casey is an old man who wants to be a teen

He goes to all the dances and they call him cha-cha king

He cha-chaжЉЇ when the band is playin?rock and roll

He tries to keep in time but the beat leaves him cold. 

(Chorus):

Because heжЉЇ too pooped to pop, too old a soul

Hips gettin?weaker when he tries to do the stroll

And every time his feet get to go in one way

Here comes a new dance and itжЉЇ goin?to stray.

Chicks told Casey, жЏ§ou better move man,

This is only a one night stand?br> Casey wasnжЉ° in time but he was dancin?awhile

Till a cramp caught his leg and he had to change his style. 

2x Chorus 

Casey finally learned to do the hoochie koo

This might have been fine back in '22

Now, IжЉ¦ gonna give you fellows just a little tip

If you wanna keep your girl youжЉЋ better get hip

Or, youжЉ£l be too pooped to pop, too old a soul

You hips are gettin?weaker when youжЉ£l try to do the stroll

And every time your feet gettin?to go in one way

Here comes a new dance youжЉ£l be left to stray.
