Copacabana At The Copa 2005 Dance Mix lyrics

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…
