เนื้อเพลง The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down Joan Baez
Virgil Caine is my name And I drove on the Danville train
'Til so much cavalry came And tore up the tracks again
In the winter of sixty-five We were hungry, just barely alive
I took the train to Richmond that fell It's a time 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 Laaaaaa, la-la-la-laaaaaa La-la, la-la La-la-la-laaaaaa
Back with my wife in Tenessee And one day she said to me
Virgil, quick come see There goes the Robert E Lee
Now, I don't mind I'm choppin' wood And I don't care if my money's no good
Just take what you need and leave the rest But they should never have taken the very best
( * )
Like my father before me I'm a working man
And like my brother before me I took a rebel stand
