Stephen Foster

Let us pause in life's pleasures
And count its many tears
While we all sob sorrow with the poor
There's a song that will linger
Forever in our ears
Oh hard times come again no more

'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary
Hard times, hard times
Come again no more
All the time you have lingered
Around my cabin door
Oh hard times come again no more

While we seek mirth and beauty
And music light and gay
Little frail forms are slinking through the door
And though their voices are silent
Their pleading looks still say
Oh hard times come again no more
