Songs With Stories About Characters
Songs are often used to tell a story, and sometimes it involves particular characters. So this category is about the stories based on characters in the song. This is one of my favorites . . .
Livin' On A Prayer - Bon Jovi
Tommy and Gina

Foolish Games (Jewel)
"You took your coat off, stood in the rain
You're always crazy like that
And I watched from my window
Always felt I was outside looking in on you
You're always the mysterious one with
Dark eyes and careless hair
You were fashionably sensitive
But too cool to care"

Library Song (Tom Chapin)
Picking out a book, check it in, check it out.
Sleeping Beauty yawned and said, "I'll come when I get out of bed."
But Madeline says, "Let her nap!" and jumps into my lap.
The Cat In The Hat says, "Hey, I'll go." "Don't take him!" cries Pinnochio,
"Don't take that cat to your address; he always makes a mess."

A story within a story: Coat of Many Colors (Dolly Parton)
That I was so proud of
From the Bible, she had read
Joseph wore and then she said
Perhaps this coat will bring you
Good luck and happiness"
