I met her in a club down in old Soho

Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola

la la la la 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

la la la la 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 and 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 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

 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

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

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

La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
