	EmVirgil GCain is my name 
and I Cdrove on the Donville Emtrain 
GTill Stoneman`s Emcavalry came 
and Ctore up the tracks Eagain  
CIn the winter ofGsixtyfive, 
we were Emhungry, just Cbarely alive  
EmI drove a train to C Richmond, Nefelle 
It was Gtime I remember very Awell
                                          CHORUS:                                                                    
The Gnight they Emdrove old CDixie Gdown, 
and all the Embells were ringing  
GThe night they Emdrove old CDixie Gdown, 
and all the Empeople were singing 
(they went:) GNaa nana Emnaa nana Ana naa na naa na Cnaa naa na naa na na naa
                                 
Back with my wife in Tennessee, 
one day she said to me: 
"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:...                                                                                
Like my father before me, 
I`m working man  
Like my brother above me, 
I took a rebel stand  
He was eighteen, proud and brave, 
but a Yankee laid him in his grave  
I swear by blood beneath my feet, 
you can`t raise a Cain back up when he`s in defeat
                                                    
Chorus... (end on Em)
