Copacabana Lyrics

	Her name was Lola
	She was a showgirl
	With yellow feathers in her hair
	And a dress cut down to there
	She would marengue
	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 to four
	They were young and they had each other
	Who could ask for more
	At the copa-copacabana
	The hottest spot north of havana
	At the copa-copacabana
	Music and passion were always the fashion
	At the copa they fellin' love


	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 gunshot
	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 thirty years ago
	When they used to have a show
	Now it's a disco
	But not for Lola
	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 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
	Don't fall in love
