Introduction (Live at The Half Beat, Yorkville, Toronto, Canada, 10/21/1964)

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen

Uh welcome to the half beat

Tonight we have for your entertainment Joni Anderson

Joni's been appearing here for the last two weeks

And will be for the next three weeks, starting next Monday

We have her under contract

We hope she won't, well, we know she will stay here

We know you'll enjoy her as much as we have

Let's give her a little bit of a welcome now

Miss Joni Anderson

It's sure refreshing to have a mic to work with

For a change of a playing tune

Sort of an empty thing

The first song I'd like to do

Tells about what happens when a man

Becomes so involved with Almighty Liquor

That he begins to think of it as a woman

And he calls his bottle Nancy Whiskey
