Copacabana (at The Copa) Lyrics - 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, (Co) Copacabana (Copacabana) 

The hottest spot north of Havana, (here) 

At the Copa, (Co) Copacabana (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 (Copacabana) 

Music and passion were always the fashion 

At the Copa (scream) she lost her love (Copa, Copacabana) 

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!
