Hard Times Lyrics - Johnny Cash

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. 

'Tis the song, the sign of the weary 

Hard times, hard times, come again no more 

Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door 

Oh hard times, come again no more. 

While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay 

There are frail forms fainting at the door 

Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say 

Oh, hard times, come again no more.

'Tis the song, the sign of the weary 

Hard times, hard times, come again no more 

Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door 

Oh hard times, come again no more. 

There's a pale drooping maiden who toils her life away 

With a worn heart, whose better days are o'er 

Though her voice it would be merry, 'tis sighing all the day 

Oh, hard times, come again no more. 

'Tis the song, the sign of the weary 

Hard times, hard times, come again no more 

Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door 

Oh hard times, come again no more.
