Hard Times (Live)

Let us pause in life's pleasures and count it's 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 songa 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
