Gone at Last (Original Demo with The Jessy Dixon Singers) (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
Snow was falling, and the drifts were high
And I was weary, sick from my driving
And I stopped to rest a while

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

(Do, oo oo do)
(Do do, do do)
(Oo do do, do do)

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

Sweet little soul as I, oh what's your problem?
Tell me why, you're so downcast
I had a long, streak of bad luck
But I, 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 (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)
(Oo oo oo, oo oo)

(Oo, do do do)
(Do do, oo oo)
(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 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
(Oo, do do do)
(Do do, oo oo)
(Do do do, do do) (ooh-ooh)
(Oo, do do do)
(Do do, oo oo)
(Do do do, do do)
(Mmhh)
(Oo, do do do)
(Do doo, oo do)
(Do do do, do do)
