"Hard Times Come Again No More" (sometimes, "Difficult Times") is an American parlor vocal written by Stephen Foster. It was published in New York by Firth, Pond & Co. in 1854 as Foster's Melodies No. 28. Well-known and popular in its twenty-four hour period,[1] both in America and Europe,[2] [3] the song asks the fortunate to consider the plight of the less fortunate and includes one of Foster's favorite images: "a pale drooping maiden".

The first audio recording was a wax cylinder past the Edison Manufacturing Company (Edison Gold Moulded 9120) in 1905. Information technology has been recorded and performed numerous times since. The vocal is Roud Folk Song Alphabetize #2659.

A satirical version well-nigh soldiers' food was pop in the American Civil War, "Difficult Tack Come Once more No More".

Lyrics [edit]

Let usa pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears,
While nosotros all sup sorrow with the poor;
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;
Oh! Hard times come up once again no more.

Chorus:
'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary,
Difficult Times, hard times, come up once more no more.
Many days yous have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Difficult times come once more 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 up once more no more.
Chorus

In that location'south a stake weeping maiden who toils her life abroad,
With a worn eye whose better days are o'er:
Though her voice would be merry, 'tis sighing all the solar day,
Oh! Hard times come once more no more than.
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! Hard times come again no more.
Chorus
