The Night They Drove Old Dixi Down
(CHORUS) The night they drove old Dixi down And the bells were ringin'; The night they drove old Dixi down And all the people were singin', they went: La la, la, la, la, la, la, La, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la.
Back with my wife in Tennessee when one day she called to me, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com '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, Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest but they should never have taken the very best.
Like my father before me I will work the land Just like my brother above me, who took a Rebel stand; He was just eighteen, my 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.
