Words that rhyme with Bol
You can read bol two ways: as a low-register anchor, or as a one-syllable shape on the open /ษ/ that ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. It serves as a workaday word in most lyrics. Type rhymes for bol into any dictionary and the answer is roughly the same: the strict-rhyme column is bounded, no near-perfect family slants exist for this one, and the assonance pool is the one that won't run out. The contemporary ear forgives โ and prefers โ the assonance matches here.

Why bol rhymes the way it does
In our engine, bol registers as a one-syllable word on the round /ษ/ (/ษ/) that ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 14 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 80, assonance 6,054, and consonance 896. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Bol rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
