Gone At Last (Demo) [with the Jessy Dixon Singers]

(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do, do) (track it)

(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do, do)

Oh, the night was black, the road was icy (ooh-ooh)
Snow was falling, and the drifts were high (ooh-ooh)
And I was weary, sick from my driving (ooh-ooh)
And I stopped to rest a while (ooh-ooh)

I sat down at a truck stop (ooh-ooh)
I was thinking about my past (ooh-ooh)
I've had a long on a streak of bad luck (ooh-ooh)
But I'm praying it's gone at last (ooh-ooh)

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 (I've had a long) streak of bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last

(Do, ooh-ooh, do)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Ooh do, do, do, do)
(Ooh do, do, do, do)
(Ooh do, do, do, do)

Honey I ain't dumb, I kicked around some (ooh-ooh)
I don't fall too easily (ooh-ooh)
But that poor boy seemed so dejected (ooh-ooh)
He just grabbed my sympathy (ooh-ooh)

Sweet little soul as I, oh, what's your problem? (Ooh-ooh)
Tell me why you're so downcast (ooh-ooh)
I had a long streak of bad luck (ooh-ooh)
But I, I pray it's gone at last (ooh-ooh)

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 (I've had a long) streak of bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last

(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, ooh, ooh)
(Do, do, do, do, do)

And every once in a while (hear the story of love)
From the middle of nowhere (yeah, you've heard it before)
When you don't expect it (it will never change, and you know your needs)
Somebody will come (somebody will come)
And lift you higher
And your burdens will be shared

I do, believe (I do, believe)
If I hadn't met you (I do, believe)
I might still, I might still be sinking fast
I had a long (I've had a long) streak of bad luck
But I pray 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, gone at last (gone at last)
I had a long (I've had a long) streak of that bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last

Gone, gone, gone
Oh, gone at last (gone at last)
Oh, gone at last (gone at last)
Gone at last (gone at last)
Gone at last (gone at last)
I had a long (I've had a long) streak of that bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last

Gone at last (do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do, do) (ooh-ooh)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, ooh, ooh)
(Do, do, do, do, do)

(Ooh, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do)
(Do, do, do, do, do)
