Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Lyrics

Hard Times (Stephen Foster)

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;
Hard times come again no more.

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

It’s the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard times..........
Come again no more
Many days you have lingered
Around my cabin door;
Oh... hard times come again no more.

There's a pale sad-eyed maiden
Who toils her life away,
With a worn heart whose better days are over
Though her voice should be merry,
She’s  sighing all the day,
Hard times come again no more.

There’s a sigh that is carried
Across the troubled wave,
There’s a wail that is heard upon the shore
There’s a dirge that is murmured
Around the lowly grave
Hard times come again no more.

It’s the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard times..........
Come again no more
Many days you have lingered
Around my cabin door;
Oh... hard times come again no more.
