Virgil Caine is the name and I served on the Danville train |
| [00:10.77] |
Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again |
| [00:17.89] |
In the winter of sixty five we were hungry just barely alive |
| [00:25.02] |
By May the tenth Richmond had fell it's a time I remember oh so well |
| [00:32.87] |
|
| [01:00.57] |
Back with my wife in Tennessee when one day she called to me |
| [01:09.14] |
Virgil quick come see there goes Robert E Lee |
| [01:15.51] |
Now I don't mind chopping wood |
| [01:18.92] |
And I don't care if the money's no good |
| [01:22.91] |
You take what you need and you leave the rest |
| [01:26.28] |
But they should never have taken the very best |
| [01:31.33] |
|
| [02:02.77] |
Like my father before me I will work the land |
| [02:10.25] |
Like my brother above me who took a rebel stand |
| [02:17.05] |
He was just eighteen proud and brave |
| [02:20.80] |
But a yankee laid him in his grave |
| [02:24.76] |
I swear by the mud below my feet |
| [02:28.06] |
You can't raise a caine back up when he's in defeat |
| [02:33.70] |
|
| [03:04.73][02:34.48][01:32.57][00:34.06] |
The night they drove old Dixie down |
| [03:10.11][02:39.89][01:37.78][00:38.92] |
And the bells were ringing |
| [03:12.90][02:42.17][01:40.32][00:41.66] |
The night they drove old Dixie down |
| [03:18.35][02:47.25][01:45.52][00:46.74] |
And the people were singing. They went la la la la la la |
| [03:23.96][02:53.36][01:51.54][00:52.89] |
La la la la la la la la |
| [00:56.16] |
|
| [01:55.24] |
|
| [02:57.27] |
|
| [03:27.84] |
