Her name is ^Fm7 Lola ^Bb7
She was a ^Ebmaj7 showgirl
With yellow ^Am7-5 feathers in her ^D7 hair
And a ^Gm7 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 ^Cm cro ^D7 wded ^Gm floor
They worked from e ^Cm ight t ^D7 il f ^Gm our
They were y ^Cm oung and they had each ^D7 other
Who could ^Gm7 ask ^Gbm7 for ^Fm7 more

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 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
