The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down [Alternate Mix]

They went, "La, la, la"
And like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand
They went, "Na, na, na"
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the people were singing
It's a time I remember, oh so well
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing

The night they drove old Dixie down
The night they drove old Dixie down
"Virgil, quick, come see, there go the Robert E.Lee"
The night they drove old Dixie down
They went, "La, la, la"
And the people were singing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat
Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day she called to me
The night they drove old Dixie down
I swear by the mud below my feet
Now I don't mind choppin' wood, and I don't care if the money's no good

And all the people were singing
In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive
He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave
But they should never have taken the very best
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell
The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringing

And the bells were ringing
And all the people were singing
Like my father before me, I will work the land
