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'

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

When all her 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

The night they drove Old Dixie down

When all her bells were ringing

The night they drove Old Dixie down

And you could hear 'em all singin'

they went na na na na na na na na na na na na
