Lyrics
[Joni, spoken intro] Thank you very much. I always get very nervous when I play the piano in front of people. Uhm, this next song I wrote on the piano, but because I got so nervous playing the piano in front of people, I sing it unaccompanied. And, uh--it's my song for America, which is, I will say, a bit of a presumptuous thing for a Canadian to write, considering that Canadians aren't very political in the first place. Even our Prime Minster isn't very political, haha. [Audience laughs] I'm--I'm wearing my American skirt, which has on the front in sequins an American eagle and on the back, an American ar--artichoke, heh heh. [Audience laughs] Heh heh. Marie's antique store in Los Angeles, 8 dollars heh heh heh [Audience laughs & applauds] Hahahaha
