November 25, 2025 - Thirty years later, the club has been transformed into a discotheque, but a middle-aged Lola remains in her showgirl attire, now a customer at the bar who "drinks herself half blind" lamenting the loss of her youth, her sanity, and Tony. "Copacabana" debuted on Billboard magazine's Top 40 chart ...

The Gloomy Story Behind Lola the Showgirl in Barry Manilow's 1978 Hit "Copacabana"
After visiting the Brazilian paradise, Manilow wanted to tell the story of the other Copacabana—the hottest spot north of Havana. Set in the late 1940s, the song focuses on Lola, a Copa showgirl, who would merengue and do the cha-cha with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there.

Lyrics for Copacabana (At The Copa) by Barry Manilow - Songfacts
At the copa, Copacabana The hottest spot north of Havana At the copa, Copacabana Music and passion were always the fashion At the copa, she lost her love Two, three, four Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl But that was many years ago, when they used to have a show Now it's a disco, but not for Lola Still in 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, Copacabana Music and passion were always in fashion At the copa, don't fall in love Oh, oh, oh, oh Writer/s: Barry Manilow, Bruce H.

December 29, 2021 -

[Verse 1]

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 8 til 4 They were young and they had eachother, who could Ask For More

[Chorus]

At the Copa, Copa Cabana, The Hottest spot north of Havana, At the Copa, Copa Cabana, Music and passion were always the fashion at the Copaaaaaa,.. They Fell in Love

[Verse 2]

His Name was Rico, He wore a Diamond, He was escorted to his Chair, He saw Lola Dancing 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

[Chorus]

At the Copa, Copa Cabana, The Hottest spot north of Havana, At the Copa, Copa Cabana, Music and passion were always the fashion at the Copaaaaaa,.. She Lost her Love

[Verse 3]

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

[Chorus]

At the Copa, Copa Cabana, The Hottest spot north of Havana, At the Copa, Copa Cabana, Music and passion were always the fashion at the Copaaaaaa,.. Don’t Fall in Love,. Don’t Fall in Love
