作词 : John Prine 作曲 : John Prine Had an apartment in the city Me and Loretta liked livin' there It's been years since the kids have grown Lives 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 Still don't know what for, don't matter anymore You know, old trees just grow stronger Old rivers grow wider every day But old people, they just grow lonesome Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello" Me and Loretta, we don't talk much now She sits and stares at the backdoor screen 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 What'll I tell him if he asks, "What's new?" Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do You know, old trees just grow stronger Old rivers grow wider every day 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 Spot some hollow ancient eyes Please don't pass 'em by And stare like you didn't care Say, "Hello in there, hello" Say, "Hello in there, hello"
