The statue in the harbor is a lovely sight
The Rockettes in precision are a sheer delight
But I for one would rather visit John McKnight
Meet me at the Copa, meet me at the Copa
Meet me at the Copa tonight.

There are those who just adore the Art Museum
And out in Brooklyn, there's a ballpark and it seems
But I don't care a whole lot if I never zeem
Meet me at the Copa, meet me at the Copa
Meet at the Copa tonight.

The show goes on, and on, and on
Do you hear the applause and the cheering
Even if you're wooing, drop what you're doing
Hurry down to see what you're hearing.
On 52nd street, they now have burleque
And you count the effervescence and the view
But all that stuff that squares is my advice to you
Meet me at the Copa, meet me at the Copa
Meet at the Copa tonight.

Now some of you may like to go to movie shows
Or walk along Fifth Avenue to view the clothes
But here's the place that's famous for geriatric nose
Meet me at the Copa, meet me at the Copa
Meet at the Copa tonight.

You'll see the nicest people in the nicest cars
They constantly use the lounge across the lovely bars
And it's the spot where stars come just to see the stars
Meet me at the Copa, meet me at the Copa
Meet at the Copa tonight.

The show goes on, and on, and on
Do you hear the applause and the cheering
Even if you're wooing, drop what you're doing
Hurry down to see what you're hearing.

The most amazing club in town you will admit
It's imitated quite a lot but this is it.
And if you want to see where the new acts hit
Meet me at the Copa, meet me at the Copa,
Meet at the Copa tonight.
