Hello In There (Re-Recorded)
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 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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'
