The guy was genuinely funny. This clip is about 4:30, but it's worth listening to what he does to his signature song, Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime. The jokes in his preface about drinking were not really serious. The more I've read his biographical sketches, the more I see that drinking was a running gag that did not reflect his life.
Enjoy.

Legend has it that back in the less PC days of political fundraising, campaigning and flesh-pressing of the 60s, Reagan would carry around a martini glass that was filled only with water as a prop on the cocktail cirucuit.
