Lyrics for 'The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down' by 'Band'
C Am C/g F F/e Dm
Virgil Caine Is The Name, And I Served On The Danville Train,
Am C/g F F/e Dm
'til Stoneman's Cavalry Came And Tore Up The Tracks Again.
Am/e F C Dm
In The Winter Of '65, We Were Hungry, Just Barely Alive.
Am/e F C Dm d
By May The Tenth, Richmond Had Fell, It's A Time I Remember, Oh So Well,
(chorus)
C/g Fmaj7 C/g Fmaj7
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, And The Bells Were Ringing,
C/g Fmaj7 C/g Fmaj7
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, And The People Were Singin'. They Went
C/g Am Gsus4 F C
La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La,
Am C F F/e Dm
Back With My Wife In Tennessee, When One Day She Called To Me,
Am C F F/e Dm
"virgil, Quick, Come See, There Goes Robert E. Lee!"
Am/e F C Dm
Now I Don't Mind Choppin' Wood, And I Don't Care If The Money's No Good.
Am/e F
Ya Take What Ya Need And Ya Leave The Rest,
C Dm D
But They Should Never Have Taken The Very Best. (chorus)
Am C F F/e Dm
Like My Father Before Me, I Will Work The Land,
Am C F F/e Dm
Like My Brother Above Me, Who Took A Rebel Stand.
Am/e F C Dm
He Was Just Eighteen, Proud And Brave, But A Yankee Laid Him In His Grave,
Am/e F
I Swear By The Mud Below My Feet,
C Dm D
You Can't Raise A Caine Back Up When He's In Defeat.
