At the [Fm7]Copa,[Bb7]    
Copac[Ebmaj7]abana
The [Fm7]hottest [Bb7]spot north of 
[Ebmaj7]Havana (,here)
[C7]At the [Fm7]Copa,[Bb7]    
Copac[Gm7]aban[C7]A
[Fm7]Music and p[Bb7]assion were 
[Gm7]always in f[C7]ashion at the 
[Fm7]Copa    [D7]

They fell in [Gm7]love...    [Gm7] 
[Gbm7] [Fm7]
[Fm7] [Gbm7] [Gm7]    [Gm7] 
His name was Rico
[Gbm7] [Fm7] [Gbm7] [Gm7]

He wore a diamond
He was escorted to his chair
He saw Lola dancing there
And when she finished
He called her over
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
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 gunshot
But just who shot who?

Her name is Lola

She was a showgirl
But that was thirty 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
and she's lost her mind
