Lola (In Concert at The Hippodrome Theatre, 1974)

I met her in a club down in old Soho

Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola

C-O-L-A, cola

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance

I asked her name and in a dark brown voice, she said Lola

L-O-L-A, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy

But when she squeezed me tight, she nearly broke my spine

Oh my Lola, la, la, la, la, Lola

Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand

Why she walked like a woman, but talked like a man, oh my Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Well, we drank champagne and danced all night

Under electric candlelight

She picked me up and sat me on her knee

And said "Dear boy, won't you come home with me?"

Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy

But when I looked in her eyes, almost fell for my Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

I pushed her away, I walked to the door

I fell to the floor, I got down on my knees

Then I looked at her and she at me

That's the way that I want it to stay

I'll always want it to be that way for my Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls

It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world, except for Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Well, I'd left home just a week before

And I've never ever kissed a woman before

But Lola smiled and took me by the hand

And said, "Dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man"

Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man

I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man, and so is Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola

La, la, la, la, Lola
