Introductions (Live at The International Hotel, Las Vegas, NV - 8/22/69 Midnight Show) Lyrics

Before I do anything else, ladies and gentlemen
I'd like to introduce the members of my crew
That are doing such a fantastic job for me

First of all, the young ladies that opened our show tonight
And they really live up to their name, ladies and gentlemen
The Sweet Inspirations

The beautiful quartet voices
Beautiful quartet voices you hear in the back
Belong to the great Imperials, ladies and gentlemen

There's a couple of people in the audience I'd like to say hello to

This young lady at the front table here, I'm sure you know who she is
She's with a wonderful group and I love her
Her name is Diana Ross, ladies and gentlemen

There's another guy in the audience
He don't know I know he's here but I'd like to say hello to him anyway
I worked with his wife once and I think he's one hell of an actor
