javascript – Get paragraph text inside an element

I want to have the text value from a <p> inside a <li> element.

html:

<ul>
  <li onclick=\"myfunction()\">
    <span></span>
    <p>This Text</p>
  </li>
</ul>

javascript:

function myfunction() {
  var TextInsideLi = [the result of this has to be the text inside the paragraph\"];
}

How to do this?
