Hard Times Come Again No More

[00:05:00]	written by Stephen Foster
[00:10.60]	Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears,
[00:16.60]	While we all sup sorrow with the poor;
[00:23.10]	There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;
[00:29.10]	Oh Hard times come again no more.
[00:35.60]	Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
[00:42.05]	Hard Times, hard times, come again no more.
[00:48.95]	Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
[00:54.30]	Oh hard times come again no more.
[01:01.02]
[01:12.02]	While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,
[01:18.95]	There are frail forms fainting at the door;
[01:24.72]	Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say,
[01:30.67]	Oh hard times come again no more.
[01:37.03]	Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
[01:43.01]	Hard Times, hard times, come again no more
[01:50.20]	Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
[01:56.76]	Oh hard times come again no more.
[02:04.10]
[02:14:76]	There's a pale drooping maiden who toils her life away,
[02:20:56]	With a worn heart whose better days are o'er:
[02:26:74]	Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day,
[02:32.75]	Oh hard times come again no more.
[02:39.21]	Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
[02:46.02]	Hard Times, hard times, come again no more.
[02:52:56]	Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
[02:58.89]	Oh hard times come again no more.
