A Pittsburgh Christmas Carol


Yinz better watch aht

Yinz better not paht

Yinz better not cry,

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 yinzes 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.....

haha! Thanks for posting it! I grew up south of Pittsburgh.

My dad, grammaw and aunt were from P'burgh.  Fineview was the neighborhood they lived and grew up in.  Overlooked the rivers and downtown, if I recall.  The last time I was there, there were still streetcars.  It was in the 50's.

I can hear Grammaw's voice in the song above.  Ha, she always said yinz.  Gives me a warm feeling to think about her.  She passed on in the fall of '59.  Nice Christmas present.  Thanks.
