Tanya Tucker - The Night They Drove Ole Dixie Down

Kishore Kumar Hits — Tanya Tucker - The Night They Drove Ole Dixie Down lyrics

Artist: Tanya Tucker

album: Back To Back - Lee Greenwood & Tanya Tucker (Live)

Virgil Caine is my name and I drove on the Danville train
George 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 fell
It was a time that 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-na
Na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na"
♪
Back with my wife in Tennessee
And one day she said to me
"Virgil, quick, come see, Lord
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 what you need, Lord, and leave the rest
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-na
Na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na"
Like my father before me
Now I'm a working man
And like my brother before me, y'all
I took my rebel stand
For 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 Caine 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-na
Na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na"
