I was thinking about how many songs have turned into movies over the years. I can think of several.

Stand By Me
Lean on Me
My Girl
Pretty Woman-I know the song is Oh, Pretty Woman but they sing the song in the movie so I think it counts.
If anybody can think of any others, feel free to post them. :)

"Ode to Billie Joe"
"Harper Valley P.T.A."

"The Night That The Lights Went Out In Georgia"

"Poison Ivy"
"Love Potion #9"

"Return to Me"
