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!

It's good to touch the green green grass of home
Just a little green, like the color when the spring is born.
Joni Mitchell
I wanna live where the green grass grows
Watch my corn pop up in rows
Tim Mcgraw
Green eyed lady, passion's lady,
strolling slowly towards the sun.
Sugarloaf
St. Patrick's day no more we'll keep
His color can't be seen
For there's a bloody law against the wearin' o' the green
(I know it from a Clancy Brothers' album from long ago)
My first taste of love oh bittersweet
Green on the vine
Like strawberry wine
Deana Carter
Everybody's green
'Cause I'm the one who won your love
But if they'd seen....
"You Can't Do That," The Beatles
All in the merry month of May
When green buds all are swellin'
Sweet William on his deathbed lay
For love of Barbara Allen
-"Barbara Allen" is fresh in my head since I just watched the movie "Songcatcher," which is about a woman documenting old ballads in the Appalachian hills.
Listen while I play
My green tambourine
(Holly if you come by here, put another line. I only have seven words.)
It's not that easy being green
having to spend each day
the color of the leaves...
---Kermit
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl
And the green grass grow all around, all around, and the green grass grows all around
I know from Barney
(I don't know anymore of the green tambourine song, sorry)
Green acres is the place to be
Farm living is the life for me
Oh you got green eyes
Oh you got blue eyes
Oh you got gray eyes
and I've never met anyone
quite like you before...
---New Order "Temptation"
Not only green when summer's here
But also when it's cold and drear
O Christmas Tree
O Christmas Tree
Thy leaves are so unchanging
And what was frozen through is newly purposed,
Turning all things green.
So it is with you and how you make me new
Through every season's change.
Every Season
Nichole Nordeman
How he loved his coat of many colors!
It was red and yellow and green and brown and blue...
from "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"
You see I've forgotten
if they're green or they're blue
"Your Song" Elton/Bernie
(for the record, they're green!)
Flash of mauve, splash of puce
Fool and king, ghoul and goose
Green and black, queen and priest
Trace of rouge, face of beast...
"Masquerade" - Phantom of the Opera
Lavender's blue, dilly dilly,
lavender's green.
When you are King, dilly dilly,
I shall be Queen.
Nursery Rhyme
And if that's not lovin' me
Then all I've got to say is
God didn't make the little green apples
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Tom Jones
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.
(Old song, learned to play on a kid's organ when I was young by following the color chart)
St. Patrick's Day
Although I may
Be seen wearing green with a paddy
I'm never sharp
While playing his harp
'Cause my heart belongs to daddy
(Cole Porter)
Skylark.....
Have you seen a valley green with spring
Where my heart can go a-journeying
Over the meadows and the rain
To a blossom-covered lane?
(Hoagy Carmichael)
I made myself a promise
As a young green polliwog
I'll be on top
Nothing can stop this frog
"This Frog," Kermit the Frog
Loving would be easy
If you colors were like my dream
Red, gold and green
"Karma Chameleon," Culture Club
