E                          
I met her in a club down in old Soho  
A                      D   
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola  
E            A 
la la la la cola  
     E 
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance  
 A                              D 
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola  
E        A    D      C        D E     
la la la la Lola la-la-la-la Lola  
      B 
Well I'm not the world's most physical guy  
       F 
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine  
E      A      D      C      D 
Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola  
   B 
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand  
   E 
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man  
            E        A    D      C        D E  
Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola  
        B 
Well we drank champagne and danced all night  
   F 
Under electric candlelight  
   A 
She picked me up and sat me on her knee  
   A 
And said dear boy won't you come home with me  
   E 
Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy  
   A                                D 
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola 
 E    A        D           C       D  
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola  
E  A        D          C       D      E 
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola  
  A      E    B 
I pushed her away  
  A      E    B 
I walked to the door  
  A      E    B 
I fell to the floor  
E       G          C 
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
