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

The night was black, the road was icy
Snow was fallin'
Drifts were high
I was weary, for 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
Long gone at last (long 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 bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last
Woo, woo

I ain't dumb
I've kicked around some
I don't fall too easily
But that looked so dejected
He just grabbed my sympathy

Sweet little soul now
What's your problem?
Tell me why you're so down cast
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)
I had a long streak of bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last
Woo, woo

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 (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 got a long (I've got 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
I've had a long streak of bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last
Woo, woo
