Hard Times Lyrics - Singles - Eastmountainsouth

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 songa a sigh of the weary 

hard timesa hard times come again no more 

many days you have lingered around my cabin door 

oha 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 songa 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 songaa sigh of the weary 

hard timesa 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
