lirik lagu the night they drove old dixie down – annie patterson
[verse 1]
virgil caine is my name and i served on the danville train
stoneman’s cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
in the winter of ’65, we were hungry, just barely alive
by may the tenth, richmond had fell
it’s a night i remember oh*so*well
[chorus]
the night they drove old dixie down
and the all bells were ringing
the night they drove old dixie down
and all the people were singing
“na, na*na*na*na*na, na*na*na*na*na na*na*na,”
[verse 2]
back with my wife in tеnnessee
one day, she said to mе
“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
you take what you need and you leave the rest
but they should never have taken the very best
[chorus]
the night they drove old dixie down
and the all bells were ringing
the night they drove old dixie down
and the all people were singing
“na, na*na*na*na*na, na*na*na*na*na na*na*na,”
[instrumental]
[verse 3]
like my father before me, i will work the land
like my brother above me, who 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
[chorus]
the night they drove old dixie down
and the all bells were ringing
the night they drove old dixie down
and all the people were singing
“na, na*na*na*na*na, na*na*na*na*na na*na*na,”
