The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

In the style of

The Band

Lyrics

virgil caine is
the name
and i served on the
danville train

'till stoneman's
cavalry came
and tore up the
tracks again

in the winter of
sixty five
we were hungry just
barely alive

by may the tenth
richmond had fell
it's a time i remember
oh so well

the night they drove
old dixie down
and the bells were
ringing

the night they drove
old dixie down
and the people were singing
they went

na la la la na na
la la na na la la
na na na

back with my wife in
tennessee
when one day she
called to me

virgil quick
come see
there goes a-robert
e lee

now i don't mind
chopping wood
and i don't care if the
money's no good

you take what you
need
and you leave the
rest

but they should
never
have taken the very
best

the night they drove
old dixie down
and the bells were
ringing

the night they drove
old dixie down
and all the people
were singing
they went

na la la la na na
la la na na la la
na na na

like my father
before me
i will work the land

and like my brother
above me
who took a rebel
stand

he was just eighteen
proud and brave
but a yankee laid
him in his grave

i swear by the mud
below my feet
you can't raise a cain back up
when he's in defeat

the night they drove
old dixie down
and the bells
were ringing

the night they drove
old dixie down
and all the people
were singing
they went

na la la la na na
la la na na la
la na na na

the night they drove
old dixie down
and all the bells
were ringing

the night they drove
old dixie down
and the people were singing
they went

na la la la na na
la la na na la
la na na na
