String

(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!

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Summer of 69 ~ Bryan Adams
You may not be an anges
'Cause angels are so few
But until the day
That one comes along
I'll string along with you
(Harry Warren/Al Dubin)
Whoops, obviously the first line should read:
"You may not be an angel"
That's what I get for typing too fast!
some kind of alien
waits for the opening
simply pulls the string
Love Comes Walkin' In ~ Van Halen
I got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger...
What a world!
What a life!
I'm in love!
(Styne/Cahn, notably sung by Frank Sinatra)
I know now that you're not a plaything
Not a toy nor a puppet on a string
"I Cry Like a Baby"
Brown paper packages tied up with string
These are a few of my favorite things
This G-string, I'll have you know,
Has never been to a burlesque show.
--From a teaching song that tells what key each string of a guitar is tuned to.
I just wanna be your everything
open up the heaven in your heart
and let me be
the things you are to me
and not some puppet on a string...
---Andy Gibb
I'd need some drums to set the beat,
And help me keep in time.
And way back in the distance,
Some strings would sound so fine.
. . . .
But in real life I'm stuck with
That same old formula,
Me and my monophonic symphony,
Six string orchestra.
--"Six String Orchestra," Harry Chapin
When you see me in your mailbox
Cut the strings and let me out
Woody Guthrie
You don't feel anything
You're a boy on a string
Jars of Clay
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string
from "State Fair"
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
And brought him strings and sealing wax
And other fancy stuff.
--"Puff the Magic Dragon" by Peter, Paul, and Mary
