The song started out as 10 lines and some chords Larree wrote way back in the 1970s. Russ dug it and came up with a chorus idea on the spot. And a new collaboration was born!

One More Try
by Russ Foreman and Larree Hollywood
One more try...
All of our songs have been sung
Of war and love, in protest of the system,
praise to God above...
All of our songs have been sold,
The alchemist turns sound to gold,
On vinyl record pressing molds,
Singing songs with nothing to say,
We need a new song played a new way,
All of our old songs start to fade,
It's the same old song, so overplayed,
Meaningless words fill my head,
With thoughts and pictures of an old world dead,
Magic, music, heart and mind, beyond words whispers,
One more try...
Give it one more try, give it one more try...
This is the soundtrack of my life,
Jingles, hymns, nursery rhymes,
The old jukebox still takes my dime,
I know the words and the tune,
Opera in a greasy spoon,
Singing Christmas songs in June,
Reaching for a platinum ring,
Silly songs don't mean a thing,
Someone, somewhere, getting paid,
For the same old song, so overplayed,
Metronomic, algorithmic,
Mathematical in my head,
An earworm has taken hold, beyond words whispers, break the mold...
Give it one more try, give it one more try...
Give it one more try, you'll get it right
Give it one more try, you're the light
Give it one more try, hold on tight
Give it one more try, one more try, one more try...
Maybe this song will be sung
