"Try, Try Again" is a Sesame Street country song with two unique variations used on the show. Both songs feature the same trio of cowboys, with Jerry Nelson as the lead and Richard Hunt and Bob Payne as a pair of cowpokes who become confused by the lyrics.
In one version of the song, the cowboys sing about the difference between using "you" and "me." (First: Episode 1294) In the other version, they sing about the difference between "here" and "there." (First: Episode 1384)
Both versions were covered by Bennie Jolink and Marcel de Groot in the Sesamstraat special, Sesamstraat in Paradiso.
