Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl |
[00:19.80] |
with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there |
[00:23.97] |
she would merengue and do the cha-cha |
[00:28.01] |
and while she tried to be a star |
[00:30.37] |
Tony always tended bar |
[00:32.22] |
across the crowded floor, they worked from 8 til 4 |
[00:36.66] |
they were young and had each other |
[00:38.28] |
who could ask for more? |
[00:40.00] |
CHORUS: |
[00:40.41] |
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) |
[00:44.45] |
the hottest spot north of Havana (here) |
[00:48.50] |
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana |
[00:53.21] |
music and passion were always in fashion |
[00:56.71] |
At the copa.... they fell in love |
[01:08.85] |
His name was Rico |
[01:10.70] |
he wore a diamond |
[01:12.79] |
he was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there |
[01:16.75] |
and when she finished,he called her over |
[01:20.96] |
but Rico went a bit to far |
[01:23.17] |
Tony sailed across the bar |
[01:25.16] |
and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two |
[01:29.76] |
there was blood and a single gun shot |
[01:31.73] |
but just who shot who? |
[01:32.99] |
REPEAT CHORUS |
[01:33.70] |
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) |
[01:37.85] |
the hottest spot north of Havana (here) |
[01:41.72] |
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana |
[01:46.33] |
music and passion were always in fashion |
[01:49.91] |
At the copa... she lost her love |
[02:30.49] |
Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl, |
[02:34.55] |
but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show |
[02:38.68] |
now it's a disco, but not for Lola, |
[02:42.66] |
still in dress she used to wear, |
[02:44.90] |
faded feathers in her hair |
[02:46.62] |
she sits there so refined,and drinks herself half-blind |
[02:50.99] |
she lost her youth and she lost her Tony |
[02:53.06] |
now she's lost her mind |
[02:54.40] |
REPEAT CHORUS |
[02:55.32] |
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana) |
[02:59.16] |
the hottest spot north of Havana (here) |
[03:03.00] |
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana |
[03:07.72] |
music and passion were always in fashion |
[03:11.21] |
At the copa... don't fall in love |
[03:19.03] |
don't fall in love |
[03:30.38] |
COPACABANA! |
