The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
The Band / Joan Baez

Virgil Caine is my name and I drove on the Danville train
´til so much cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
In the winter ´65, we were hungry, just barely alive
I took the train to Richmond that fell
It was a time I remember, oh, so well

The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin´
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin´
They went, ?Na,na, na, na, na, ...

Back with my wife in Tenesse
And one day she said to me,
?Virgil, Quick! come see!
There goes Robert E. Lee.?
Now I don´t mind, I´m chopping wood
And I don´t care if the money´s no good
Just take

But they should never have taken the very best

The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin´
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin´
They went, ?Na,na, na, na, na, ...

Like my father before me, I´m a working man
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand
Oh, he was just 18, proud and brave
But a yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the blood below my feet
You can´t raise a Cane back up when he´s in defeat

The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin´
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin´
They went, ?Na,na, na, na, na, ...
