Name the song the line is from Part II

Hey, I embedded the answer to that other one! And Jim, you answered your own question too fast.

You cause me to spend all my money,
You laugh and call me old Santa Claus.
I'm telling you, baby, I'm through with you,

_______ ________, ______ _________.

Should be super easy. Was covered by both Paul McCartney and Elvis, if you can believe Wikipedia. First crossover hit in its genre. Noahcat probably heard it growing up.

My apologies to Mister Bard. I’m not used to looking for titles embedded in sentences without quotes, italics or underscores. So, I missed your correct guess to”Slip away”. I will watch your posts more carefully in the future. That was clever and creative, sorry I missed it.


“Just because” is the name of your song, Bard.

Let’s try this one:

My whole life has changed
And everybody tells me
That I am not the same

After additional research, I learned that "Beer Barrel Polka" was a hit before "Just Because". It is a better musical composition as well, perhaps the best from that genre, containing not one but three hummable melodies.

For Noahcat: A dear friend of Uncle Clem's played "Just Because" at his funeral meal and we all sang along.

Bard plays this on a whole 'nother level-- we're use to name that song d'uh 101.

I have "Just Because " by Frankie Yankovic
When I saw the lyrics I had a flash of me on my Dad's feet during a wedding at a V.A. hall dancing w/ me and singing it to me.
The table cloth was paper...
I thought all weddings were like like til I moved here/lol

Kind of sad to hear that stuff now because it represents a dying generation and way of life. Jimmy Sturr, who used to be neighbors with a very good friend of mine, was playing on one of the PBS moneythons last week. Along with his Polish style polkas, Jimmy has branched into big band, and even has a Cajun fiddler- anything to spice it up. Mom doesn't like Jimmy. She only likes Slovenian style.

I'm on a different level, all right. I'm with the group that has never heard half the songs people mention here and struggles to recall the other half.

I’ll recap this one before the hints

My whole life has changed
And everybody tells me
That I am not the same

This song has been done well by many, and in different styles. The best covers I have heard are Dean Martin, Freddy Fender and Sam Cooke. But the original is smooth and pretty too.
It’s from 1956 and in 1969 Sonny James hit #1 on the country charts with this song.

More lines:

I don't need nobody
To tell my troubles to
I don't need nobody
To tell my troubles to

'Cause _____ _ ___ ___ ____
All I need is you

"Since I Met You, Baby?"

Yes, Sue. That's it. What you got?

"Got no bankroll, got no yacht,
Still I'm happy with what I've got"

(VERY old show tune, lol.)

I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night

Yours I can get.

Baby’s hungry and the money’s all gone
The folks back home
Don’t want to talk on the phone
She gets a long letter
And sends back a postcard
Times are hard.
