Hello In There Sözleri

[ John Prine ]

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

Joe is somewhere on the road

We lost Davey in the Korean War

And I still don't know what for

dont matter anymore

Chorus:

You know that old trees 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 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 he asks "what's new?"

"nothin what's with you?"

nothin much to do

Chorus

So if you walking down the street some time

And spot some hollow ancient eyes

Please don't just pass em by and stare

as if you didnt care

Say hello in there

hello
