The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
Charlie Daniels

Virgil Caine is the name

And I served on the Danville train

'Til stone man's cavalry came

And tore up the tracks again

In the winter of '65

We were hungry just barely alive

By May the tenth, when Richmond had fell

It's a time I remember, oh so. well

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the bells were ringin'

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the people were singin'

They went na, na, na, na, na, na

Back with my wife in Tennessee

When one day she called to me

Said, Virgil, quick come see'

There goes Robert E Lee

And I don't mind choppin' wood

And I don't care if my 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 ringin'

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the people were singin'

They went na, na, na, na, na, na

Like my father before me I'm a workin' man

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

And 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 ringin'

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the people were singin'

They went na, na, na, na, na, na

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the bells were ringin'

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the people were singin'

They went na, na, na, na, na, na
