Lyrics The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

Virgil Caine is my name and
I drove on the Danville Train
'Till so much cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of sixty five we were hungry just barely alive
I took the train to Richmond that fell
It was a time
I remember oh so well
The night they drove old dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Back with my wife in Tennessee and one day she said to me
Virgil, quick come see and there goes the Robert E. Lee
Now I don't mind them choppin' wood
And I don't care if the money's no good
Just take what ya need and leave the rest
But they should never have taken the very best
The night they drove old dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Like my father before me
I'm a working man
And like my brother before me
I took a rebel stand
Well he was just eighteen proud and brave
But a yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the blood below my feet
You can't raise the Caine back up when it's in defeat
The night they drove old dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
