Lyrics

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
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 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
Copacabana
Copacabana
Copacabana
His name was Rico (Rico), he wore a diamond (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, a chair was 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
Here at the Copa, Copacabana
Music and passion were always the fashion
At the Copa, she lost her love
Copacabana
Copa
Copacabana
Copacabana
Copa, Copa, Copacabana
Copa, Copa, Copacabana
Copa, Copa, Copacabana
Copa, Copa, Copacabana
Copa, Copa, have a banana
Copa, Copacabana
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Her name is Lola (Lola), she was a showgirl (Showgirl)
But that was thirty years ago when they used to have a show
Now it's a disco (Disco), but not for Lola (Oh, no)
Still in the dress she used 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 lost her mind
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, don't fall in love
Copacabana
Copacabana
Copacabana
Copacabana
