Lyrics [edit]

Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears,
While we all sup sorrow with the poor;
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;
Oh! Hard times come once more no more.

Chorus:
'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, difficult times, come once again no more.
Many days you accept lingered effectually my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more than.

While nosotros seek mirth and dazzler and music light and gay,
In that location are frail forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say
Oh! Hard times come over again no more.
Chorus

In that location's a pale weeping maiden who toils her life away,
With a worn heart whose better days are o'er:
Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the twenty-four hours,
Oh! Hard times come over again no more.
Chorus

'Tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled moving ridge,
'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore
'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave
Oh! Hard times come once more no more.
Chorus
