Copacabana

Copacabana - Ameritz Tribute Club

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 a crowded floor

They worked from 8 till 4

They were young

And they had each other

Who could ask for more

At the Copa (CO )

Copacabana (Copacabana)

The hottest spot north of Havana (here)

At the Copa (CO ) 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 (CO )

Copacabana (Copacabana)

The hottest spot north of Havana (here)

At the Copa (CO ) 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 30 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 (CO ) Copacabana (Copacabana)

The hottest spot north of Havana (here)

At the Copa (CO ) Copacabana

Music and passion were always the fashion

At the Copa

Don't fall in love

Don't fall in love
