Title: Copacabana (at The Copa) |
| [00:24.95] |
Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl |
| [00:28.90] |
with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there |
| [00:33.26] |
she would merengue and do the cha-cha |
| [00:37.10] |
and while she tried to be a star |
| [00:39.72] |
Tony always tended bar |
| [00:41.71] |
across the crowded floor, they worked from 8 til 4 |
| [00:45.81] |
they were young and they had each other |
| [00:48.03] |
who could ask for more? |
| [00:49.95] |
CHORUS: |
| [00:50.28] |
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) |
| [00:54.59] |
the hottest spot north of Havana (here) |
| [00:58.20] |
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana |
| [01:02.89] |
music and passion were always in fashion |
| [01:06.91] |
At the copa.... they fell in love |
| [01:11.81] |
~~wss~~ |
| [01:18.49] |
His name was Rico |
| [01:20.87] |
he wore a diamond |
| [01:22.98] |
he was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there |
| [01:27.18] |
and when she finished,he called her over |
| [01:31.11] |
but Rico went a bit to far |
| [01:33.29] |
Tony sailed across the bar |
| [01:35.14] |
and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two |
| [01:40.19] |
there was blood and a single gun shot |
| [01:41.74] |
but just who shot who? |
| [01:43.78] |
REPEAT CHORUS |
| [01:44.11] |
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) |
| [01:47.86] |
the hottest spot north of Havana (here) |
| [01:51.37] |
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana |
| [01:56.29] |
music and passion were always in fashion |
| [02:00.45] |
At the copa.... she lost her love |
| [02:06.10] |
~~wss~~ |
| [03:54.97] |
Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl, |
| [03:59.44] |
but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show |
| [04:03.39] |
now it's a disco, but not for Lola, |
| [04:07.48] |
still in dress she used to wear, |
| [04:10.03] |
faded feathers in her hair |
| [04:11.60] |
she sits there so refined,and drinks herself half-blind |
| [04:15.78] |
she lost her youth and she lost her Tony |
| [04:18.07] |
now she's lost her mind |
| [04:18.67] |
REPEAT CHORUS |
| [04:20.09] |
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) |
| [04:24.52] |
the hottest spot north of Havana (here) |
| [04:27.98] |
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana |
| [04:32.89] |
music and passion were always in fashion |
| [04:36.70] |
At the copa... don't fall in love |
| [04:44.23] |
don't fall in love |
| [04:48.09] |
