Songs About Being Tied Up

"Tied up" can mean a number of things. It can mean that you're occupied and unable to do whatever it is whoever it is wants you to do. It can mean a metaphorical entanglement in a situation or with a specific person. It can also mean being physically bound in some way. These songs offer a balanced mix of all three of these meanings, and maybe even a couple more. Who knows? Enjoy!  ~  JH
