"Difficult Times Come Once more No More than" (sometimes, "Difficult Times") is an American parlor song written past Stephen Foster. It was published in New York by Firth, Pond & Co. in 1854 as Foster's Melodies No. 28. Well-known and pop in its day,[one] both in America and Europe,[2] [3] the song asks the fortunate to consider the plight of the less fortunate and includes 1 of Foster'south favorite images: "a pale drooping maiden".
The first audio recording was a wax cylinder by the Edison Manufacturing Visitor (Edison Gold Moulded 9120) in 1905. Information technology has been recorded and performed numerous times since. The song is Roud Folk Song Index #2659.
A satirical version about soldiers' food was popular in the American Civil War, "Difficult Tack Come up Again No More than".
Lyrics [edit]
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.Chorus:
'Tis the vocal, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come up once again no more.
Many days you have lingered effectually my cabin door;
Oh! Difficult times come up once again no more.While nosotros seek mirth and beauty and music low-cal and gay,
There are delicate forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say
Oh! Hard times come again no more than.
ChorusThere'southward a pale weeping maiden who toils her life away,
With a worn heart whose better days are o'er:
Though her phonation would exist merry, 'tis sighing all the solar day,
Oh! Hard times come again no more.
Chorus'Tis a sigh that is wafted beyond the troubled moving ridge,
'Tis a wail that is heard upon the shore
'Tis a dirge that is murmured around the lowly grave
Oh! Hard times come up once again no more.
Chorus
