[ john prine ]
Had an apartment in the city
Me and loretta liked living there
It's been years since the kids have grown
With lives of there own
All left us alone
John and linda live in omaha
Joe is somewhere on the road
We lost davey in the korean war
I still don't know what for
Guess it doesn't matter anymore
Chorus:
Old trees grow stronger
And old rivers wider everyday
But old people, they just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say hello in there
Say hello
Me and loretta we don't talk much now
She just sits staring at the back door screen
While all the news it just repeats itself
Like some old forgotten dream
That we've both seen
Someday i'll go and call up billy
We worked together in the factory
But what do i tell him if he asks what's new?
Say "nothin what's with you"
Cause ther's not much left to do
Chorus
So if you walking down the street one day
And you spot some hollow ancient eyes
Don't turn around as if you didn't care
Or worse yet stop and stare
Just say hello in there
Say hello
