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 again no more

'tis a song, a sigh of the weary:
"Hard times, hard times come again no more!
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door...
Oh, hard times come again no more!"

While we seek mirth and beauty
And music light and gay
There are frail ones fainting at the door
Though their voices are silent
Their pleading looks will say
"Oh, hard times come again no more!"

'tis a song, a sigh of the weary:
"Hard times! Hard times... come again no more!
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door...
Oh, hard times come again no more."

'tis a sigh that is wafted across the troubled wave
'tis a wail that is heard upon the shore
'tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave
"Oh, hard times... come again no more."

'tis a song a sigh of the weary:
Hard times! Hard times! Come again no more!
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door...
Oh, hard times! Come again no more...
Oh, hard times... come again no more..."
