| The night was black, the roads were icy
|
| Snow was fallin', 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 bad luck
|
| But I’m praying it’s gone at last
|
| Gone, gone at last, gone at last
|
| Gone at last, gone at last
|
| I had a long streak of that bad luck
|
| But I’m prayin' it’s gone at last
|
| 00, oo, oo, oo, oo 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 streak of bad luck
|
| But I’m praying it’s gone at last
|
| Gone, gone at last, gone at last
|
| Gone at last, gone at last
|
| I had a long streak of that bad luck
|
| But I’m prayin' it’s gone at last
|
| 00, oo, oo, oo, oo 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 streak of bad luck
|
| But I’m praying it’s gone at last
|
| Gone, gone, gone at last
|
| Gone at last, gone at last
|
| I had a long streak of that bad luck
|
| But I’m prayin' it’s gone at last
|
| Gone, gone, gone gone gone gone
|
| Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
|
| I had a long streak of that bad luck
|
| But I’m prayin' it’s gone at last |
