Us
(The word "we" was played another time, but think of a song with the word "us.")

(Read only, anymore; sorry.)
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!

Us...(us..us..us..us.)
And them...(them..them..them..)
And after all we're only ordinary men
Pink Floyd
Why did she leave us so thoughtlessly
How could she do this to me
"She's Leaving Home," The Beatles
Because neither one of us
(neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say goodbye
Gladys Knight and the Pips
I just want to be me,
But we have to be us.
--"The Lutheran Choir Song," performed by the St. Olaf College Choir on "A Prairie Home Companion."
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
You and I.
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine ~ John Lennon
Two of us Sunday driving
Not arriving
On our way back home.
Beatles! (thanks for the clue, Sylvia)
'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
Bruce Springsteen
They called us gypsies, tramps and thieves
But every night all the men would come around
and lay their money down
Cher
Lamb of God, You take away the sin of the world.
Grant us peace; grant us peace.
--Christian liturgy fragment
Well the night's busting open
These two lanes will take us anywhere
Thunder Road
Bruce Springsteen
But us, old friend!
What's to discuss, old friend?
Here's to us!
Who's like us?
Damn few!
(Stephen Sondheim, "Old Friends", from "Merrily We Roll Along")
Well it'd been years since the kids had grown
Lives of their own
Left us alone
Hello in There
John Prine
tonight's the night,
it's gonna be all right,
cause I love you, girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
Rod Stewart
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding
And bring it out here
"We Wish You a Merry Christmas"
Will not the deepening darkness
Brighten the glimmering star
Then when the night is upon us
Why should the heart sink away
When the dark midnight is over
Watch for the breaking of day
"Whispering Hope," an old hymn with some beautiful imagery. I was listening to The Blue Sky Boys and it came up.
DOH! I played twice on the new song. I'll sit out three plays. So play, please!
I'll stay on the bus,
Forget about us,
Put the blame on me.
--"Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Old Oak Tree."
Oh come let us adore him
Christ the Lord
Oh Come All Ye Faithful
My buddies and me are gettin' real well known;
Yeah, the bad guys know us and they leave us alone.
--"I Get Around," the Beachboys
Oh come, Thou Dayspring from on high,
And cheer us by Thy drawing nigh.
--O Come, O Come Emmanuel--Advent season song
What if God was one of us,
Just a slob like one of us,
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home.
--Suggested by my #2 son.
Come join us then each week, my friends.
You're sure to get a smile
From seven stranded castaways
Here on Gilligan's Isle!
--(I thought that Sandra would surely play this one!)
I don't have any songs filed by "us" in my head. Glad you played it. It reminds me of this one, though:
Mickey Mouse, Mickey Mouse,
Forever let us hold his banner high
From the ancient and honorable original Mickey Mouse Club theme song
