HELLO IN THERE (John Prine) We had an apartment in the city And me and Loretta liked living there It'd been years since the kids had grown A life of their own And left us alone John and Linda live in Omaha And Joe is somewhere on the road We lost Davy in the Korean War I still don't know what for Don't matter anymore cho: Ya know, that old trees just grow stronger And old rivers grow wilder everyday 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 thru 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 when he asks "What's new?"? Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do 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 Copyright John Prine @aging filename[ INTHERE PL oct96 |
