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!

Oh, you're daddy's rich,
And your ma is good looking,
Hush little baby,
Don't you cry.
Summertime - George Gershwin
Hello Mother, hello Father;
here I am at Camp Granada.
--Silly song about a boy at summer camp.
She rides in the front seat
She's my older sister
She knows her power over me.
She goes to bed an hour later than I do.
When she turns the light out
What does she think about?
And what does she do in the daytime
That makes her so great?
Oh, but to be,
I'd like to be
My older sister.
(Carly Simon)
And we are his sisters, and his cousins, and his aunts
Chorus sung in HMS Pinafore - Gilbert and Sullivan
Go tell Aunt Rhody the old gray goose is dead
We didn't get much sleep
but we had a lot of fun
on Grandma's feather bed...
---John Denver
Sister Christian, now the time has come
And you know that you're the only one to say OK
Something that played daily on the "classic rock" station.
We are family:
Mama, Papa, Sisters and me.

And now I've gone and thrown it all away

-Queen
Let's all get up and dance to a song
That was a hit before your mother was born
Though she was born a long, long time ago
Your mother should know
(The Beatles)
My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady she don't care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock and roll

But I know you're always there

You know I never liked the party life,
Up all night, lovely wife,
You have a lovely wife.
--"In the Winter," Janis Ian
Sisters are doing it for themselves...
Eurythmics & Arethra Franklin
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up
To be cowboys.
--Willie Nelson
And all that remains
Are the faces and the names
Of the wives, and the sons, and the daughters.
--"Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," Gordon Lightfoot
Don't worry mother
it'll be alright
and don't worry sister
say your prayers
and sleep tight...
---Jewel, "Life Uncommon"
Does your mother know that you're out?
Does he make enough money to take my daughter
Down the road?
--"Down the Road," heard in a grocery store that plays country music.
Mrs Brown you've got a lovely daughter,
Girls as sharp as her are something rare
Mrs Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter - Herman's Hermits
And I keep on thinking of her,
Sister Goldenhair so bright.
Mama don't allow no banjo-pickin' here.
But we don't care what Mama don't allow,
We pick banjos anyhow.
--Traditional bluegrass
There's life outside your mother's garden
There's life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn't been any explosion
We're not spinning like Dorothy
John I love you - Sinead O'Connor
