The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down 歌詞
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down - Joan Baez (瓊·貝茲)
Virgil Caine is my 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
I took the train to Richmond had fell
It's a time I remember oh so well
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went
La la la la la la la la
Back with my wife in Tennessee
And one day she said 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 all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went
La la la la la la la la
Like my father before me
I'm a working man
Like my brother above me
I 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
And all the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singin'
They went
La la la la la la la la
