Hard Times (Come Again No More)

There's a sign that is painted across the troubled wave

There's a cry that is heard upon the shore

Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say

Oh, hard times come again no more

It's the song, the sigh of the weary

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Hard Times, come again no more

Oh, hard times come again no more

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

It's the song, the sigh of the weary

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Hard Times, come again no more

Oh, hard times come again no more
