What Are The Lyrics For The Night They Drove Ol' Dixie Down By The Black Crowes?
Virgil Caine is my name, and I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's Calvery 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 ringin' The night they drove old Dixie down, and the people were singin' They went na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day she said to me "Virgil, quick come see, there goes Robert E. Lee" Well 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 They never should 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 the people were singin' They went na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na Like my father before me, I will work the land Like my brother above me, I took a rebel stand He was just eighteen, proud and brave, 'Til a Yankee laid him in his grave I swear by the mud beneath my feet You can't raise a Caine 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 the people were singin' They went na na na na na na, na na 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 the people were singin' They went na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na |
