The Kinks - Lola (Lyrics)

Lola by The Kinks
Album: Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One

Lola Lyrics:

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, lo lo lo lo 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, lo lo lo lo 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, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Well, we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
She said, "Little 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
Lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo 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
Lo lo lo lo Lola
Girls will be boys, and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world
Except for Lola
Lo lo lo lo Lola
Well, I'd left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
She said, "Little boy, 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
Lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola

Amazing song from the genius of Ray Davies. Kinks are the longest standing British invasion band.. same lineup for 40 years!

[KingFergus]

This song is lightly poking fun at the Kinks manager who accidentally took home a cross dresser and had a romantic evening with him. When he woke up the next morning he noticed that the woman he had gone home with had stubble on his chin and was actually a man. After realizing this he wasn’t mad, he just chalked it up to a life experience and moved on…

I forgot to add something. Whenever I hear this song it brings back great memories of my Pop❤❤❤

❤ I love this song! When my Dad 1st heard it he cracked up! It reminded him of this guy when he was in the army in Germany. This guy was in a bar & hooked up with what he thought was a woman, but it was a man 😂 they other soldiers never let him live it down!
Every time he heard it, it brought back good memories from a time when things weren't very good.❤

I miss this time! Now it's 2024 and Lola would be lynched for just existing. Humanity was a mistake

[SuzyQJC]

😂 my granddaughters girlfriend has a Chihuahua named Cola and I told her there’s a song they made a long time ago and I found it! ❤
