Casey is an old man who wants to be a teenHe goes to all the dances, and they call him cha-cha KingHe cha-chas when the band is playin’ rock ‘n’ rollHe tries to keep in time, but the beat leaves him coldBecause he’s too pooped to pop, is too old-schoolHips gettin’ weaker when he tries to do this strollAnd every time his feet get to go in one wayHere comes a new dance, and it’s goin’ to strayChicks told Casey, “You better move man”This is only a one-night standCasey wasn’t in time, but he was dancin’ awhile‘Til a cramp caught his leg and he had to change his styleBecause he’s too pooped to pop, is too old-schoolHips gettin’ weaker when he tries to do this strollAnd every time his feet get to go in one wayHere comes a new dance, and it’s goin’ to strayBecause he’s too pooped to pop, is too old-schoolHips gettin’ weaker when he tries to do this strollAnd every time his feet get to go in one wayHere comes a new dance, and it’s goin’ to strayCasey finally learned to do the hoochie kooThis might have been fine back in ’22Now, I’m gonna give you fellows just a little tipIf you wanna keep your girl, you’ll better get hipOr you’ll be too pooped to pop, too old-schoolYou hips are gettin’ weaker when you’ll try to do the strollAnd every time your feet gettin’ to go in one wayHere comes a new dance and you’ll be left to stray
