st like Coca C

She walked up
to me and she
asked me to da
nce
I asked her he
r name and in
a dark brown v
oice she said
Lola
L-O-L-A, Lola,
Lo lo lo lo

Well I'm not t
he worlds most

ke my spine, o
h my Lola
Lo lo lo lo Lo

[Verse 3]
Well I'm not d
umb but I can'
t understand

on her knee
and said 'Dear boy, won't you come home with me'

Well I left ho

And I'd never
