《The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down [*]》歌词

[00:00:00] The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down [*

[00:00:40] Vigil Caine is the name

[00:00:42] And I served on the Danville train

[00:00:47] Till Stoneman's cavalry came

[00:00:50] And tore up the tracks again

[00:00:54] In the winter of '65

[00:00:57] We were hungry just barely alive

[00:01:01] By May the tenth Richmond had fell

[00:01:04] It's a time I remember oh so well

[00:01:10] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:01:15] And the bells were ringing

[00:01:18] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:01:23] And the people were singin'

[00:01:25] They went la la la...

[00:01:37] Back with my wife in Tennessee

[00:01:41] When one day she called to me

[00:01:45] "Virgil quick come see

[00:01:49] There goes the Robert E Lee"

[00:01:52] Now I don't mind choppin' wood

[00:01:56] And I don't care if the money's no good

[00:02:00] You take what you need and you leave the rest

[00:02:03] But they should never have taken the very best

[00:02:10] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:02:15] And the bells were ringing

[00:02:17] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:02:22] And all the people were singin'

[00:02:25] They went la la la...

[00:02:40] Like my father before me

[00:02:43] I'm a working' man

[00:02:47] And like my brother above me

[00:02:51] Who took a rebel stand

[00:02:54] He was just eighteen proud and brave

[00:02:58] But a Yankee laid him in his grave

[00:03:02] I swear by the mud below my feet

[00:03:05] You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat

[00:03:12] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:03:17] And the bells were ringing

[00:03:20] The night they drove old Dixe down

[00:03:25] And all the people were singin'

[00:03:27] They went la la la...

[00:03:42] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:03:48] And all the bells were ringing

[00:03:50] The night they drove old Dixie down

[00:03:56] And the people were singin'

[00:03:58] They went la la la...
