Lyrics [edit]

Let us intermission in life's pleasures and count its many tears,
While nosotros all sup sorrow with the poor;
There'southward a vocal that will linger forever in our ears;
Oh! Difficult times come up again no more.

Chorus:
'Tis the vocal, the sigh of the weary,
Difficult Times, hard times, come over again no more.
Many days you have lingered around my motel door;
Oh! Hard times come over again no more.

While we seek mirth and beauty and music calorie-free and gay,
There are frail forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say
Oh! Hard times come once more no more than.
Chorus

There's a pale weeping maiden who toils her life away,
With a worn middle whose meliorate days are o'er:
Though her vocalism would be merry, 'tis sighing all the solar day,
Oh! Hard times come up once again no more.
Chorus

'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! Difficult times come up once again no more than.
Chorus
