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!

In a bar in Toledo, across from the depot
On a barstool she took off her ring
Lucille
Kenny Rogers
Grand Central Station
I wanna stand beneath the clock just one more time.
Wanna wait on the platform for the Hudson line.
I guess you're never really all alone Or too far from the pull of home,
And the stars upon that painted dome still shine.
(Mary Chapin Carpenter)
Down by the station
Early in the morning
See the little puffer-bellies
All in a row
kids' song
bus stop, wet day,
she's there, I say,
please share my umbrella
Bus Stop ~ The Hollies
Take the last train to Clarksville
And I'll meet you at the station.
--Beatles, I think.
Hoosier Nan---that was The Monkees!
Excellent entry!
This old airport's got me down
It's no earthly good to me
Cause I'm stuck here on the ground
Cold and drunk as I might be
Early Morning Rain
Gordon Lightfoot
This old station makes it on time
Leaves Central Station 'bout a quarter to nine
"Casey Jones," The Grateful Dead
Take me to the station
And put me on a train
I've got No Expectations
To pass through here again
Rolling Stones, among others
Gotta buy a ticket for an airplane.
Ain't got time to take a fast train.
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home.
My baby just wrote me a letter.
--Heard on radio, don't know anything else about it.
I'm sitting in the railway station
Got a ticket for my destination
Homeward Bound
Simon and Garfunkel
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking-glass ties.
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile,
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", the Beatles
...runnin' into Souville
headquarters on the line
Receiving her strict orders
from a station just behind.
"The FFV," a train wreck song
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away.
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time.
--Otis Redding, I think, "Dock of the Bay."
Rock Island Line is a mighty good road.
Rock Island Line is the road to ride.
Rock Island Line is a mighty good road.
If you're gonna ride it, you will ride it like you're flyin'.
Get your tickets at the station for the Rock Island Line.
--From a vinyl(!) album my parents had when I was a kid.
I'm a country station
I'm a little bit corny.
"You Turn Me On (I'm a Radio)," Joni Mitchell
(So it said we could use the word "station," but it was also clear that all the choices referred to transportation-type things. So am I wrong to post this? Please delete, if so.)
At first I did not think it coul be you,
But you're the only one who got off the train.
--"Mail Order Annie," Harry Chapin
