Hard Times - Dynamite Boy

Tis the song, the sigh of weary

Hard times, harder times, come again no more

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Oh hard times come again no more

Let us pause in life’s pleasures

And count its many tears

For we all sip sorrow with the boys

There’s a song that will linger

Forever in our ears

Oh hard times come again no more

Tis the song, the sigh of weary

Hard times, harder times, come again no more

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Oh hard times come again no more

Though we seek mirth, and beauty

And riches bright, and gay

They are frail forms fading at the door

All though their voices are silent

Their bleeding throats will say

Oh hard times come again no more

Tis the song, the sigh of weary

Hard times, harder 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, droopy maiden who toils her life away

With a sad face, who’s better days are gone

The voice would be silent, her pleading looks will say

Oh hard times come again no more

Tis the song, the sigh of weary

Hard times, harder times, come again no more

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Oh hard times come again no more

Tis the song, the sigh of weary

Hard times, harder times, come again no more

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Oh hard times come again no more

Tis the song, the sigh of weary

Hard times, harder times, come again no more

Many days you have lingered around my cabin door

Oh hard times come again no more

Oh hard times come again no more
