WE HAD AN APARTMENT
IN THE CITY
ME AND LORETTA LIKED
LIVIN' THERE
WELL IT'S BEEN YEARS
SINCE THE KIDS
HAVE GROWN
A LIFE OF THEIR OWN
LEFT US ALONE
JOHN AND LINDA
LIVE IN OMAHA
AND JOE IS SOMEWHERE
ON THE ROAD
WE LOST DAVY
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 WILDER
EVERY DAY
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'VE BOTH SEEN
SOMEDAY I'LL GO AND
CALL UP RUDY
WE WORKED TOGETHER
AT THE FACTORY
BUT WHAT COULD I SAY
IF HE ASKS WHAT'S NEW
NOTHIN'
WHAT'S WITH YOU
NOTHIN' MUCH TO DO
YOU KNOW
THAT OLD TREES
JUST GROW STRONGER
AND OLD RIVERS
GROW WILDER
EVERY DAY
OLD PEOPLE
JUST GROW LONESOME
WAITING FOR SOMEONE
TO SAY
HELLO IN THERE
HELLO
SO IF YOU'RE WALKIN'
DOWN THE STREET
SOMETIME
AND SPOT SOME HOLLOW
ANCIENT EYES
PLEASE DON'T JUST
PASS 'EM BY AND STARE
AS IF YOU DIDN'T CARE
SAY HELLO IN THERE
HELLO
