Lyrics Gone At Last (with Phoebe Snow & The Jessy Dixon Singers) - Paul Simon
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
awhile
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
had
a
long
streak
of
bad
luck
But
I
pray
it's
gone
at
last
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
pray
it's
gone
at
last
Gone
at
last,
gone
at
last
Gone
at
last,
gone
at
last
I
had
a
long
streak
of
bad
luck
But
I
pray
it's
gone
at
last
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
that
bad
luck
But
I
pray
it's
gone
at
last
Gone
at
last,
gone
at
last
Gone
at
last,
gone
at
last
I
had
a
long
streak
of
bad
luck
But
I
pray
it's
gone
at
last
Gone
at
last,
gone
at
last
Gone
at
last,
gone
at
last
I
had
a
long
streak
of
bad
luck
But
I
pray
it's
gone
at
last
Oo,
oo,
oo...
