Gone at Last - Bill Anderson & Mary Lou Turner

Gone at Last Lyrics

(Bill)
The night was black the roads were icy
Snow was fallin', drifts were high
And I was weary from my drivin'
So I stopped to rest for a while.I sat down at a truck stop
I was thinkin' about my past
I've 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.)I've had a long streak of a bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last.

Well, I ain't dumb, I kicked around some
I have thought too easily
But that boy looked so seductive
He just grabbed my sympathy.Sweet little woman what's your problem?
Tell me why you're so down cast

I've 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.)I've had a long streak of a bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last.--- Instrumental ---
(Bill)
Once in awhile from out of nowhere
At least expected and we ran to pair
Somebody will come and lift you higher
And your burdens will be shared.(Mary Lou)
I do believe if I hadn't met you
I might still be sinking fast
I've had a long streak of a bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last.(Both)
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've had a long streak of a bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last.But I pray it's gone at last.--- Instrumental ---
