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!

I'm sitting in a railway station
Got a ticket for my destination

One of them songs from the 60s
Sittin' in my la-la,
Waitin' for my ya-ya.

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

I'm just sitting on a fence
You can say I've got no sense
Tryin' to make up my mind
Really is so horrifyin'
So I'm sitting on a fence

Must you dance every dance
With the same fortunate man?
You have danced with him
Since the music began
Won't you change partners and dance with me?
Ask him to sit this one out
While you're alone
I'll ask the waiter to tell him
He's wanted on the telephone.
(Irving Berlin, "Change Partners")

Now I sit by my window and I watch the cars
I fear I'll do some damage one fine day
But I would not be convicted
By a jury of my peers
Still crazy after all these years

Sits on the porch swing watching them fly

oh, Sandy...

And the people all said,
"Sit down! Sit down, you're rockin' the boat."
-from "Guys and Dolls"
I've been sittin' on the fence
And it doesn't make much sense
'Cuz you keep me in suspense
And you know it
Then you promise to return
When you don't I really burn
Well, I guess I'll never learn
And I show it
Ella sang it and it is probably called "Undecided"
Sit there, and count your fingers
What can you do?
Old girl, you're through
Just sit there, and count your little fingers
Unlucky little girl blue.
(Rodgers/Hart)
An evenin' spent with Hannah sittin' on your knees
Is like walking through Alaska in your BVDs

You better sit down kids
I'll tell you why
Your mother and I kids
Don't see eye to eye.
I first had this on a Glen Campbell album in the mid last century, but it turns out Sonny and Cher made it well known. A song where the dad explains to his kids why he and their mom are getting a divorce.

sit down next to me.
Those who find they're touched by madness, sit down next to me.

sit down next to me.
