Think of some Carpenters songs that either specifically mention or infer a sports activity, or mention an activity that is sometimes an athletic competition. An example would be "Rainy Days & Mondays"- run and find the one who loves you.

In the song "Piano Picker" Richard sings ....."while all the other guys are out playing with the FOOTBALL".

Sailing on the Tide mentions running in the human race and also Sailing can be considered a sport or athletic activity   |

I don't know if this qualifies or not, but "Little Honda" is about riding a motorcycle.

Not sure if this was will work with this thread but how about the lyric from "Prime Time Love"....."so don't hold back, CONTACT"..
Looking at contact sports like football and hockey for instance.

contact sports- good addition for sure. Now in the Olympic Games, one of the events is the 50K walk- so any song that mentions walk (such as start out walking & learn to run, from "We've Only Just Begun") could count. Another activity that can be quite athletic and is sometimes judged as such is dancing (as in ballroom dancing ), so perhaps songs such as "Dancing In The Street" would qualify.
