john prine - hello in there lyrics
we had an apartment in the city
me and loretta liked living there
it’d been years since the kids had grown
a life of their own, left us alone
john and linda live in omaha
and joe is somewhere on the road
we lost davy in the korean war
and i still don’t know what for, don’t matter anymore
ya’ know that old trees just grow stronger
and old rivers grow wilder every day
old people just grow lonesome
waiting for someone to say, “h-llo in there, h-llo”
me and loretta, we don’t talk much more
she sits and stares through the back door screen
and all the news just repeats itself
like some forgotten dream that we’ve both seen
someday i’ll go and call up rudy
we worked together at the factory
but what could i say if asks, “what’s new?”
nothing, what’s with you? nothing much to do
ya’ know that old trees just grow stronger
and old rivers grow wilder every day
old people just grow lonesome
waiting for someone to say, “h-llo in there, h-llo”
so if you’re walking down the street sometime
and spot some hollow ancient eyes
please don’t just p-ss ’em by and stare
as if you didn’t care, say, “h-llo in there, h-llo”
