(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!

When you're alone,
And life is making you lonely,
You can always go
Down town
Petula Clark
And Daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenburgh County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
John Prine
Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Lazarus
Porcupine Tree
How can you laugh
When you know I'm down
(I know it by The Beatles, but it's a cover of something older and American, I bet)
For they do not want you free
And they will not make you strong
But only drag you down in the hole they're coming from
From Me to You
Janis Ian
Be in love with you tonight beside an old house full of light
City cold and far away can be anyone when day comes down
"Days Of Youth"
Locksley
Down in the valley
Valley so low
Hang your head over
Hear the wind blow
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
Bridge Over Troubled Water
Simon and Garfunkel
As I went down to the river to pray,
Studying about that good old way
From "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"
Lord have mercy on the boy
from down in the boondocks
Suzanne takes you down
To her place by the river
Leonard Cohen
You'd have me down, down, down, down on my knees
Now wouldn't you, barracuda?
Barracuda
Heart
I guess I might seem kinda bitter
You got me feelin' down in the dumps
"One More Minute," Weird Al
I figure whenever you're down and out
The only way is up
Hey Look Me Over
Oh you know I'm goin' down to the river, babe, I'm gonna sit down on the ground. I'm gonna let the waves of water, the waves of water wash my troubles down.
(Three downs for the price of one!)
Goin' Down To The River, Mississippi Fred McDowell
Goin' down the road feelin' bad...
And I ain't gonna be treated this-a-way.
When I die please bury me
Down at the end of Beaker Street
"Freight Train"
The people on the bus go up and down,
All through the town.
--"Wheels on the Bus," a children's song.
Said I'm going down to Yasgur's farm
Gonna join in a rock and roll band
"Woodstock"
CSN&Y (but Joni Mitchell wrote it, because she didn't get to go)
I'm gonna sit right down
And write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
("Fats" Waller)
Down, down, down, the stomach through;
'Round, 'round, 'round the system, too.
With Alka Seltzer you'll always say,
"Relief is just a swallow away."
--Advertising jingle from the 1960s.
