Whiter Shade Of Pale


Procol Harum: Whiter Shade of Pale

Annie Lennox: Whiter Shade of Pale

Percy Sledge: Whiter Shade of Pale

Willie Nelson/Waylon Jennings: Whiter Shade of Pale




we skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of 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
