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 winner 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 singing they went

La la 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 and 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

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la

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 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 all the people were singing they went

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la

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

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la
