Sixteen vestal virgins
We skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
but the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
as the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
the waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale
Here is the line-out of all the number one hits from 1967 on the UK charts - Wow:

That sure takes me back! Thanks for posting those lyrics. I just realized I've been singing the wrong words all these years.
