Well, well, well,
Just because you think you're so pretty,
And just because your momma thinks you're hot,
Well, just because you think you've got something
That no other girl has got,
You've caused me to spend all my money.
You laughed and called me old Santa Claus.
Well, I'm telling you,
Baby, I'm through with you.
Because, well well, just because.

Well, well, well,
There'll come a time when you'll be lonesome
And there'll come a time when you'll be blue.
Well, there'll come a time when old Santa
He won't pay your bills for you.

You've caused me to lose all my women
And now, now you say we are through.
Well, I'm telling you
Baby, I was through with you
A long, long, long time ago.

Well, just because you think you're so pretty
And just because your mama thinks you're the hottest thing in
town
Well, just because you think you've got something
That nobody else has got,
You've caused me to spend all of my money.
Honey, you laughed and called me your old Santa Claus.
Well, I'm telling you Baby I'm through with you
Because, well well, just because.

Hey Jackie,

When my dad died in 1990 we starting going through everthing he had saved over his 60 odd years. In his "Shop" he had this record in 45rpm. I looked at it and because it was so scratched we let it go. We did play the RCA black and red 45 turntable in the back porch. We thought it was so cool stacking 10 records on the record player and it played them all without doing a thing. Perry Como and Pat Boone was the big players then. Still love Ricky Nelson at the end of Ozzie/Harriet.
