The song Hello In There is performed by John McDermott in the album named Love Is a Voyage in the year 1999 .
We had an apartment in the city
Me and Loretta liked living there
Well it's been years since the kid's have grown
A life of their own and left us alone
John and Linda lived in Omaha
And Joe is somewhere on the road
And we lost Davey in the Korean war
And I still don't know what for
Don't matter anymore
You know that old trees just grow stronger
And old rivers grow wider everyday
And 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'd both seen
Someday I'll go and call up Rudy
We worked together at a factory
But what do I say?
If he asks what's new?
Nothing what's with you?
Nothing much to do
You know that old trees just grow stronger
And old rivers grow wider everyday
And old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say
Hello in there, hello
If you're out walking down the streets of town
And spot some hollow ancient eyes
Well please just don't pa*s them by and stare
As if you didn't care
Say hello in there, hello
You know that old trees just grow stronger
And old rivers grow wider everyday
And old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say
Hello in there, hello
