"Hello in there" is from John Prine's debut album, "John Prine" (1971)

Old age and loneliness, written about an old couple, is a theme relatively unexplored by songwriters (with the notable exception of Jacques Brel, "Les Vieux".) What's amazing is how it rings so true despite being written by a 25-year old.

This really is a deeply sad and human song. Not just that people work hard their whole lives and then can't even expect acknowledgement of their existence once their greatest accomplishments are behind them, but that time numbs us to life. Even a cut as deep as losing a son eventually is just worn away by the tides of time.

John Prine cuts to the soul of humanity like no other.

An old friend just sent me this, and said hello. I think it was so thoughtful and I do love this old song. Very poignant. I used to think it was all cool to be young, that I was so smart and pretty and so with it. Well I always had respect for the older folk but I didn't have a clue what is really going on until I began to age into my 50's and 60's. I realized then more than ever that the older people, they are ones to bow down to, they have seen it all and been through it all. This song captures that so well, such a pretty song.

*"Hello In There"*We had an apartment in the city,Me and Loretta liked living there.Well, it'd been years since the kids had 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.[Chorus:]Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger,And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day.Old people just grow lonesomeWaiting 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 itselfLike 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 asks "What's new?""Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do."[Chorus]So if you're walking down the street sometimeAnd spot some hollow ancient eyes,Please don't just pass 'em by and stareas if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there, hello."
