Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tearsWhile we all sup sorrow with the poorThere's a song that will linger forever in our earsOh, hard times, come again no more.'Tis the song, the sign of the wearyHard times, hard times, come again no moreMany days you have lingered all around my cabin doorOh hard times, come again no more.While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gayThere are frail forms fainting at the doorThough their voices are silent, their pleading looks will sayOh, hard times, come again no more.'Tis the song, the sign of the wearyHard times, hard times, come again no moreMany days you have lingered all around my cabin doorOh hard times, come again no more.There's a pale drooping maiden who toils her life awayWith a worn heart, whose better days are o'erThough her voice it would be merry, 'tis sighing all the dayOh, hard times, come again no more.'Tis the song, the sign of the wearyHard times, hard times, come again no moreMany days you have lingered all around my cabin doorOh hard times, come again no more.'Tis the song, the sign of the wearyHard times, hard times, come again no moreMany days you have lingered all around my cabin doorOh hard times, come again no more.
