Keith Richards: the great Rolling Stone has a cheeky sense of humor. He posted a video to Twitter right before the Stones’ final show in Miami on Friday night. It shows a shrine to Jerry Lee Lewis, candles lit. And the audio is Chuck Berry singing “Too Pooped to Pop.” LOL. Keith should be exhausted. This Stones tour– hopefully not the last– was magnificent. These are old men with young hearts thanks to Chuck and Jerry Lee. Keif tired? Never!

TOO POOPED TO POP

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-cha’s when the band is playin’ rock and roll
He tries to keep in time but the beat leaves him cold

Here comes a new dance and it’s goin’ to stray
Chicks told Casey, you better move man
This is only a one night stand
Casey wasn’t in time but he was dancin’ awhile
Till a cramp caught his leg and he had to change his style
Because he’s too pooped to pop, too old a soul
