Story Behind The Song
In the 60's and 70's a highly select group of musicians, engineers, and producers recorded almost everything released in the commercial music industry. They were labeled by insiders "The Wrecking Crew" and most times were never named on album liner notes or published documents.

Lyrics
A search for a mother's embrace
For The Wrecking Crew - and music's all you do
And a hope that something goes your way
And opens the door - prove it's right for you
What are you packing for Hollywood
Are bringing that great smile
How 'r' you gonna keep them satisfied
Something small - maybe last a while
And don't forget your big heart now
All your feelings too
Tryin' tryin' so hard to work it out
It's something you gotta do - you just got to do
A search for a mother's embrace
For The Wrecking Crew - and music's all you do
And a hope that something goes your way
And opens the door - prove it's right for you
How did your first audition go
Any call-backs or numbers today
Did you find an agent or A-lister's card
Or will you cold-call 'em anyway
Don't forget your lucky hat
And favorite shoes
Tryin' so hard to work it out
It's something you gotta do - you just got to do
A search for a mother's embrace
For The Wrecking Crew - and music's all you do
And a hope that something goes her way
And open the door - prove it's right for you
