The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (Concert Version) - The Band

Virgil Kane is the name

And I served on the Danville train

Till Stoneman's cavalry came

And tore up the tracks again

In the winter of 65

We were hungry just barely alive

By May the 10th Richmond had fell

It's a time I remember oh so well

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the bells were ringing

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the people were singing

They went Na...

Back with my wife in Tennessee

When one day she called to me

Virgil quick come see

There goes Robert E Lee

Now I don't mind chopping wood

And I don't care if the money's no good

You take what you need

And you leave the rest

But they should never

Have taken the very best

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the bells were ringing

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the people were singing

They went Na na...

Like my father before me

I will work the land

And like my brother above me

Who took a rebel stand

He was just 18 proud and brave

But a Yankee laid him in his grave

I swear by the mud below my feet

You can't raise a Kane back up

When he's in defeat

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the bells were ringing

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the people were singing

They went Na...

The night they drove old Dixie down

And all the bells were ringing

The night they drove old Dixie down

And the people were singing

They went Na...
