Em G
Virgil Kane is the name
C Am
And I served on the Danville train
Em G
'Till Stoneman's cavalry came
C Am
And tore up the tracks again

Em C
In the winter of '65
G Am
We were hungry, just barely alive
Em C
By May the 10th, Richmond had fell
G Em A
It's a time I remember, oh so well

G C G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And the bells were ringing
G C G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And the people were singing
G Em A C
They went, "Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

G , C , G , C

Em G
Back with my wife in Tennessee
C Am
When one day she called to me
Em G
"Virgil, quick, come see,
C Am
There goes Robert E. Lee!"
Em C
Now, I don't mind chopping wood
G Am
And I don't care if the money's no good
Em C
You take what you need And you leave the rest
G Em A
But they should never Have taken the very best

G C G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And the bells were ringing
G c G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And all the people were singing
G Em A C
They went, Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

G , C , G , C

Em G C Am
Like my father before me I will work the land
Em G C am
And like my brother above me Who took a rebel stand
En C
He was just 18, proud and brave
G Am
But a Yankee laid him in his grave
Em C
I swear by the mud below my feet
G Em A
You can't raise a Kane back up When he's in defeat


G C G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And the bells were ringing
G c G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And all the people were singing
G Em A C
They went, Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

G , C , G , C
G C G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And the bells were ringing
G c G
The night they drove old Dixie down
Em
And all the people were singing
