What happens when a band covers a song and the song gets popular?

Are the royalties split between the original composer and the cover band? I’m talking about songs like “Killing me softly with his song”, that was originally recorded by Lori Lieberman, re recorded by Roberta Flack and by The Fugees.

It’ll depend on the agreement the “new band” made with whoever has the rights to the original song (not always the artist)
