She won't have it simply won't have England swaggering over the English language. Oh, she's dizzy, is Chicago simply dizzy. I was born there. Parents, one Philadelphy, one New York, one Pawtucket the Pawtucket one was the step-mother. Father liked his wives from the original States; but I was born in Chicago.
