Hard Nights Come Again no More

1.Let us pause in life's pleasures and put aside our beers,
Which we all sup whether rich or poor;
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears;
Oh! Hard nights come again no more

Chorus
'Tis the song, the sigh of the bleary
Hard nights, hard nights come again no more
Many days I have woken upon the bathroom floor
Oh! Hard nights come again no more.

2.When we seek shade and solace in the harsh light of day
When our frail forms are fainting at the door;
When we'd wish the wide world silent, our own quiet voice will say
Oh! Hard nights come again no more.

3.There's a pale drooping maiden who can put those beers away,
With the very best of us, that much is sure;
Though the beer makes her merry, the gossip's made her say,
Oh! Hard nights come again no more.

4.'Tis the penitance of those who often to the bar did go
'Tis the oath we've broken oft' before
'Tis the dirge of all those who, in the morning, suffer so
Oh! Hard nights come again no more.

Anne
