Short version of rules
Without using a search engine to find one, write down at least eight words of a song containing the word (or the topic, if it's a general topic).
If it's the newest word, play once, and wait for another player to play before you go again.
On older words, you can play over and over without waiting!

So take a letter, Maria
Address it to my wife
And give the number if you
can find it
so I can call just to tell
her I'm fine and to show...
---"Operator" Jim Croce
Ring, ring, ring- my cell-phone's not ringing...I really want you to call me...

And write myself a letter
And make-believe it came from you

I've been standin here waitin Mister Postman

For just a card or just a letter
Sayin he's returnin' home to me

(sung by the Beatles,The Carpenters, The Marvelettes)
She wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live with out me no more
The Letter ~ Joe Cocker
I hold it up and show my buddies
Like we ain't scared and our boots aren't muddy,
And they all laugh like there's something funny 'bout the way I talk
When I say, "Mama sends her best y'all."
I fold it up and put it in my shirt,
Pick up my gun and go back to work.
And it keeps me drivin' on,
Waitin' on letters from home.
Jenny, Jenny you're the girl for me
You don't know me but you make me so happy
I tried to call you before
But I lost my nerve
I tried my imagination
But I was disturbed

So they went down and they sat on the pier.
He said, "I bet you got a boyfriend, but I don't care.
I've got noone to send a letter to.
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?"

this is the mother waiting by the phone,
praying for her son
Pictures of You ~ Last Goodnight
And here's a young girl
On a kind of a telephone line through time
And the voice at the other end comes like a long lost friend
So I know I'm all right
Life will come and life will go
Still I feel it's all right
'Cause I just got a letter to my soul
(Virginia Woolf, Indigo Girls)
My uncle took the message
And he wrote it on the wall

Breathe 2am ~ Anna Nalick
Send a fax or send me a letter
Or give me a call
That would even be better

Ground Control to Major Tom,
commencing countdown, engines on
take your protein pills,
and put your helmet on
Major Tom ~ David Bowie
Sittin' by the phone
Waitin' for your call
I'm fed up
I'm hanging up on you

Abigail Adams:
I live like a nun in a cloister.
Solitary. Celibate. I hate it.
John Adams:
I live like a monk in an abbey.
Ditto. Ditto. I hate it.
Abigail:
Write to me with sentimental effusion.
Let me revel in romantic illusion.
-"Yours, Yours, Yours" from "1776!"
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
That calls me from a world of care,
And bids me at my Father's throne
Make all my [something] and wishes known
(needs or wants, I don't remember--needs makes more sense, but wants would be alliterative with wishes, and real-case I would have a hymnal in my hands)
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
Stevie Wonder
And the sign said "the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, and tenement halls."

You wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you
You've asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song
"The Wild Side of Life"
Please don't cry
I'll say goodbye
And I won't call you anymore
Mark Chesnut
I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find
But it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind.
"sister Golden Hair" - Heart, America, others
If I could write a letter to me
And send it back in time
To myself at seventeen
Brad Paisley
Lipstick letters 'cross the mirror this morning
Said, "Good-bye, baby."
You left without warning.
Like a thief in the night,
You ran away with my heart.
That Ain't No Way To Go

But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step

She was looking kind of dumb
With her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Smash Mouth
Why don't you write me?
I'm out in the jungle,
I'm hungry to hear you!
Send me a card
I've been waiting so hard
To be near you (la, la, la)
Why don't you write?

My phone's on vibrate for you
But still I never ever feel from you

Joan Baez
I dug my key into the side
Of his pretty little souped up four wheel drive
And carved my name into his leather seats
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights
Slashed a hole in all four tires
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats
Carrie Underwood

There isn't anything that I need to know

If you wanted the sky
I would write across the sky
In letters that would soar
a thousand feet high
To Sir with love
(That doesn't break into lines very well at all!)

It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home

I hear the knock on the door
That may never come
I hear the telephone
That hasn't rung
