Because your code redefines footers, they no longer include the
copyright field, so it has to be added back in. Does this code do what
you want?

\version "2.21.0"

\paper {
  print-first-page-number = ##t
  oddHeaderMarkup = ##f
  evenHeaderMarkup = ##f
  oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
    \overlay {
      \line {
        \on-the-fly \print-page-number-check-first \fromproperty 
#'page:page-number-string
        \on-the-fly \print-page-number-check-first \italic "- My Song - arr. by 
M. Bagolin (2020)"
      }
      \fill-line { \on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty 
#'header:copyright }
    }
  }
  evenFooterMarkup = \oddFooterMarkup
}

\header {
  title = \markup \override #'(font-name . "Arial Black") \fontsize #+4 { \bold 
 "My song" }
  copyright = \markup
  \override #'(font-name . "Palatino Linotype")
  \override #'(baseline-skip . 2)
  \center-column {
    \fontsize #-4
    { \bold
      {
        \line { " " }
        "Arranged by M. B. (2020)"
        "ALL RIGHTS RESERVED"
      }
    }
  }
}


\score {
  \repeat unfold 800 c'2
}
