Gone At Last
The night was black the roads were icy snow was fallin' drifts were high
And I was weary from my drivin' and I stopped to rest for a while
I sat down at a truck stop I was thinkin' about my past
I had a long streak of a bad luck but I pray it's gone at last
Yeah gone at last gone at last gone at last gone at last
I had a long streak of a 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 had a long streak of a bad luck but I pray it's gone at last
Gone at last gone at last gone at last gone at last...
Well once in awhile from out of nowhere 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 had a long streak of a 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...
