Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like
Coca Cola
C-O-L-A, Cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said, "Lola"
L-O-L-A, Lola
La-la-la-la, Lola
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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?"
[Chorus]
Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes, well I 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
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
Well, that's the way that I want it to stay
And I 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
[Chorus]
Well, I left home just a week before
And I'd 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
But, I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
[Outro]
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
Lola
La-la-la-la-Lola
La-la-la-la-Lola
Lola
La-la-la-la-Lola
La-la-la-la-Lola
