The night was black, the roads were icy Snow was falling, 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 that bad luck But I´m praying it´s gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last Gone at last, gone at last I´ve had a long streak of that 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´ve had a long 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 I´ve had a long streak of bad luck But I pray it´s gone at last
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 at last, gone at last Gone at last, gone at last I´ve had a long streak of that bad luck But I pray it´s gone at last
