Lyrics:
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 all the bells were ringing,
C/G Fmaj7 C/G Fmaj7 The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin'. They went C/G Am Gsus4 F C Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,
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 the 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'm a workin' man,
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. (Chorus)
