[length: 04:16]
[00:17.49]We had an apartment in the city.
[00:24.78]Me and my husband liked living there.
[00:31.67]It’s been years since the kids have grown,
[00:39.35]A life of their own, left us alone.
[00:48.50]John and Linda live in Omaha.
[00:55.93]Joe is somewhere on the road.
[01:03.14]We lost Davy in the Korean war.
[01:10.16]I still don’t know what for, don’t matter any more.
[01:17.39]You know that old trees just grow stronger,
[01:23.98]And old rivers grow wilder every day,
[01:33.10]But old people, they just grow lonesome
[01:39.39]Waiting for someone to say,
[01:43.26]”Hello in there. Hello”
[01:57.84]Me and my husband, we don’t talk much anymore.
[02:02.59]He sits and stares through the backdoor screen.
[02:11.29]And all the news just repeats itself
[02:18.23]Like some forgotten dream
[02:22.10]That we’ve both seen.
[02:27.06]Someday I’ll go and call up Judy.
[02:34.59]We worked together at the factory.
[02:40.97]Ah, but what would I say when she asks what’s new?
[02:47.69]Say, “Nothing, what’s with you?
[02:51.64]Nothing much to do.”
[02:57.20]You know that old trees just grow stronger,
[03:03.51]And old rivers grow wilder every day,
[03:10.59]Ah, but, but old people, they just grow lonesome
[03:17.51]Waiting for someone to say,
[03:22.12]”Hello in There. Hello.”
[03:41.30]So if you’re walking down the street sometime
[03:48.63]And you should spot some hollow ancient eyes,
[03:50.15]Don’t you pass them by and stare
[03:54.80]As if you didn’t care.
[03:58.42]Say, “Hello in there. Hello
