Her name is Lola
|
She was a showgirl
|
With yellow feathers in her hair
|
And a dress cut down to there
|
She would merengue
|
And do the cha-cha
|
And while she tried to be a star
|
Tony always tended bar
|
Across the crowded floor
|
They worked from eight til' four
|
They were young and they had each other
|
Who could ask for more?
|
|
At the copa
|
Copacabana
|
The hottest spot north of havana
|
Here at the copa
|
Copacabana
|
Music and passion
|
Were always the fashion
|
At the copa
|
They fell in love...
|
|
His name was Rico
|
He wore a diamond
|
He was escorted to his chair
|
He saw lola dancing there
|
And when she finished
|
He called her over
|
But rico went a bit too far
|
Tony sailed across the bar
|
And then the punches flew
|
And chairs were smashed in two
|
There was blood and a single gun shot
|
But just who shot who?
|
|
At the copa
|
Copacabana
|
The hottest spot north of havana
|
At the copa
|
Copacabana
|
Music and passion
|
Were always the fashion
|
At the copa
|
She lost her love
|
|
Her name is lola
|
She was a showgirl
|
But that was many years ago
|
When they use to have a show
|
Now it's a disco
|
But not for lola
|
Still in the dress she use to wear
|
Faded feathers in her hair
|
She sits there so refined
|
And drinks herself half blind
|
She lost her youth
|
And she lost her tony
|
Now she's lost her mind
|
|
At the copa
|
Copacabana
|
The hottest spot north of havana
|
At the copa
|
Copacabana
|
Music and passion
|
Were always the fashion
|
At the copa
|
Don't fall in love...
