Johnny Cash – The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

Virgil Cain is my name, and I served on the Danville train
Till Stonewall’s cavalry came, and tore up the tracks again
In the winter of ‘65, we were hungry, just barely alive
By May 10th, Richmond had fell
And it’s a time, I remember oh so well.

Chorus:
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 singing they went
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na.

Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day, she called to me
Virgil, quick come see, Virgil there goes the Robert E. Lee
Now I don’t mind choppin’ wood
And I don’t care if the money’s no good
Just take what you need and you leave the rest
But they never should have taken, the very best.

Chorus:

Like my father before me, I will work the land
And like my brother above me, he took a rebel stand
He was just 18 proud and brave
And a Yankee, laid him in his grave
I swear my the mud below my feet
You can’t raise the king back up when he’s in defeat.
