Better Times Are Coming Lyrics

cho: Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
Sound the news from the din of battle booming,
Tell the people far and wide that better times are coming.
1. There are voices of hope that are borne on the air,
And our land will be freed from it's clouds of despair,
For brave men and true men to battle have gone,
And good times, good times are now coming on.

cho: Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
Sound the news from the din of battle booming,
Tell the people far and wide that better times are coming.
4. General Lyon and Baker and Ellsworth now are gone,
But still we have some brave men to lead the soldiers on;
The noise of the battle will soon have died away,
And the darkness now upon us will be turn'd to happy day

cho: Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
Sound the news from the din of battle booming,
Tell the people far and wide that better times are coming.
Better times are coming.
