John Prine - Hello In There Lyrics

Send "Hello In There" ringtone to your cell

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 "hello in there hello"

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 "hello in there hello"

So if you're walking down the street sometime

And spot some hollow ancient eyes

Please don't just pass 'em by and stare

As if you didn't care say "hello in there hello"
