| Hello In There | |
| We had an apartment in the city. | |
| Me and my husband liked living there. | |
| It's been years since the kids have grown, a life of their own, left us alone. | |
| John and Linda live in Omaha. | |
| Joe is somewhere on the road. | |
| We lost Davy in the Korean war. | |
| I still don't know what for, don't matter any more. | |
| You know that old trees just grow stronger, and old rivers grow wilder every day, | |
| but old people, they just grow lonesome waiting for someone to say, | |
| "Hello in there. Hello" | |
| Me and my husband, we don't talk much anymore. | |
| He sits and stares through the backdoor screen. | |
| And all the news just repeats itself like some forgotten dream that we've both seen. | |
| Someday I'll go and call up Judy. | |
| We worked together at the factory. | |
| Ah, but what would I say when she asks what's new? | |
| Say, "Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do." | |
| You know that old trees just grow stronger, and old rivers grow wilder every day, | |
| ah, but, but old people, they just grow lonesome waiting for someone to say, | |
| "Hello in There. Hello." | |
| So if you're walking down the street sometime and you should spot some hollow ancient eyes, | |
| don't you pass them by and stare as if you didn't care. | |
| Say, "Hello in there. Hello." |
