A Christmas Carol

I got this in an email from my brother, who like me, was born and raised in the Pittsburgh, PA area…and he still lives there.  

Isn’t it scary to think that people like me who have been gone from there for many, many years now, still understand all this…and still have hints of this in their speech?

A Pittsburgh Christmas Carol

Yinz better wahtch aht,
Yinz better not paht,
Yinz better not cry,
I’m tellin yinz hauscome,
Santa Clause is commin’ dahntahn.
He’s makin’ a list,
He’s checkin’ it aht,
He’s gowen find aht who’s nebby an ‘at,
Santa Clause is commin’ dahntahn.
He knows if yinz es a jaggoff,
He can see inside your haus,
He knows if you’ve been workin’ hard,
Or sittin’ on your caach.
Yinz better wahtch aht,
Yinz better not paht,
Yinz better not cry,
I’m tellin yinz hauscome,
Santa Clause is commin’ dahntahn!…..
GO STILLERS!
