The night was black
The roads were icy, snow was fallin', drifts were high
I was weary, from my driving, so 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 that it's all gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
All my hard time's gone at last
I had a long streak of bad luck
But I'm prayin' ithat 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
That he just grabbed my sympathy
Sweet little son, 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 that it's all gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
All my hard time's gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' that 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
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 ithat it's all gone at last
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' that is all gone at last
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' that is all gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
All my hard time's gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' that is all gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
