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 till four
They were young and they had each other
Who could ask for more?

The hottest spot North of Havana

Music and passion were always in 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 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 in a single gun shot
But just who shot who?

Music and passion were always in fashion
At the Copa, she lost her love
(Copa, Copacabana)

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 she lost her Tony
Now she's lost her mind

At the copa, don't fall in love
