I thought the line that followed, "You should have seen me and my Morphine" was, "When we used to go dancing in the wall". I thought so because the line that follows, "Spin me right off the floor". It made sense. "War" does not make sense.
"War" is probably correct. Morphine was used as a battlefield painkiller during the Civil War and wounded soldiers were routinely sent home with a supply. It was easily available in drug stores and through the mail. It is estimated that following the civil war there were 400 to 500 thousand morphine addicts in the US.

Dancing in the "WAR" totally makes sense if you think of this song as a love song from a soldier to his "lady love", the pain killer Morphene. I've always thought that was the meaning of this great song.

Plus, "war" rhymes with "floor". "Wall" doesn't rhyme with "floor".
