Her name was 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
a crowded floor, they worked from 8 till 4
They
were young and they had each other
Who could
ask for more?
At the
Copa (CO!), Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest
spot north of Havana (here)
At the
Copa (CO!), Copacabana
Music
and passion were always the fashion
At the
Copa....they fell in love
(Copa
Copacabana)
His name
was Rico, he wore a diamond
He was
escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancin' 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 (CO!), Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest
spot north of Havana (here)
At the
Copa (CO!), Copacabana
Music
and passion were always the fashion
At the
Copa....she lost her love
