Virgil Caine is the name and I served on the Danville train

'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again

In the winter of '65 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 singin' They went

La La La La La La La La La La La La La La

Back with my wife in Tennessee When one day she called to me

Virgil quick come see there goes Robert E Lee

Now I don't mind choppin' wood and I don't care if the money's no good

Ya take what ya need and ya 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 the people were singin' They went

La La La La La La La La La La La La La La

Like my father before me I will work the land

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 Caine 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 the people were singin' They went

La La La La La La La La La La La La La La

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down and the bells were ringing

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down and the people were singin' They went

La La La La La La La La La La La La La La
