Verse
D# A#
When Lola was born the First World War
Fm Gm G#
Had only just ended 3 years before
D# A#
In ’77 she took a flight
Fm Gm G#
She told a reporter who asked her that it was alright
D# A#
2002 is the year that she died
Fm Gm G#
She lived in Manhattan on the Upper West Side
Fm Gm G#
If you look on the web that’s almost all that will show
A# D#
There once was a Lola Aglialoro
[Verse 2]
D# A#
She always said she was from England
Fm Gm G#
But after she died I learned she came from the mainland
D# A#
The last Kindertransport was the one shе was on
Fm Gm G#
And she spent her youth thеn being bombed in London
D# A#
She met a soldier, followed him back
Fm Gm G#
How many kids she raised, who could keep track
Fm Gm G#
Only 2 of her own, but so many others would follow
A# D#
My nanny Lola Aglialoro
[Verse 3]
D# A#
She always said she never had
Fm Gm G#
A# problem with the gangsters they said were so bad
D# A#
She would laugh loudly, as she often did
Fm Gm G#
Saying I knew all the gangsters when they were wee kids
D# A#
She said not one child should be forsaken
Fm Gm G#
Maybe because her own childhood had been taken
Fm Gm G#
A# woman of joy, a woman of sorrow
A# D#
A# lady named Lola Aglialoro
[Verse 4]
D# A#
As I grew up I still kept in touch
Fm Gm G#
With this woman who had affected so many so much
D# A#
My lady of laughter, my mother of mirth
Fm Gm G#
Who seemed to know so deeply what laughter was worth
D# A#
There’s no Stumbling Stone to recall when she came
Fm Gm G#
And she long ago changed both her first and last name
Fm Gm G#
But now there’s a song so someone out there might know
A# D#
There was once a Lola Aglialoro
