The song is a lament by Abijah Booze, the American Consul in Puerto Plata,[1] who regrets having to rise early. Booze's role in the premier was played by Raymond Hitchcock, his first starring role.[2] The title is a refrain found throughout the song: {{poemquote|Ain't it funny what a difference just a few hours make?[3]}}Although almost completely forgotten today, a version of the song by a popular singer of the time known as Billy Murray is downloadable at several websites. His version was released by Victor Records. See also
