Copacabana (At The Copa) - Barry Manilow
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
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 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
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

Talking Havana
have a banana
Music and passion
always the fashion

Her name is Lola
She was a showgirl
But that was
thirty years ago
when they used to
have a show now
It's the 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
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 lov
