Gone At Last (with Phoebe Snow & the Jessy Dixon Singers)

The night was black, the roads were icy

Snow was falling, drifts were high

And I was weary from my driving

And I stopped to rest for a while

I sat down at a truck stop

I was thinking about my past

I've had a long streak of that bad luck

But I'm praying it's gone at last

Gone, gone at last (Gone at last), gone at last (Gone at last)

Gone at last (Gone at last), gone at last (Gone at last)

I've had a long (I've had a long) streak of that bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last

I ain't dumb, I kicked around some

I don't fall too easily

But that boy looked so dejected

He just grabbed my sympathy

Sweet little soul, now, what's your problem?

Tell me why you're so downcast

I've had a long (I've had a long) streak of bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last

Gone at last (Gone at last), gone at last (Gone at last)

Gone at last (Gone at last), gone at last (Gone at last)

Oh, I've had a long (I've had a long) streak of bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last

Once in a while, from out of nowhere

When you don't expect it and you're unprepared

Somebody will come and lift you higher

And your burdens will be shared

Yes, I do believe if I hadn't met you

I might still be sinking fast

I've had a long (I've had a long) streak of bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last

Gone, gone (Gone at last), gone at last (Gone at last)

Gone at last (Gone at last), gone at last (Gone at last)

I've had a long (I've had a long) streak of that bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last

Gone, gone (Gone at last), gone, gone, gone (Gone at last)

Gone, gone, gone, gone (Gone at last), gone, gone, gone, gone, gone (Gone at last)

I've had a long (I've had a long) streak of that bad luck

But I pray it's gone at last
