The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (Concert Version)-The Band

[00:00.00] 作词 : Robertson [00:01.00] 作曲 : Robbie Robertson [00:03.43] Virgil Caine is my name and I served on the Danville train, [00:10.43] Till so much cavalry came and they tore up the tracks again [00:18.06] In the winter of sixty-five, we were hungry, just barely alive [00:25.12] By May the tenth, Richmond had fell - it's a time I remember oh so well [00:34.31] The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the bells were ringing [00:41.56] The night they drove old Dixie down, and the people were singing [00:48.87] They went "La, la, la-la, la, La, la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la" [01:01.13] Back with my wife in Tennesee, when one day she called to me [01:08.38] "Virgil, quick, come see, there goes the Robert E. Lee." [01:15.81] Now I don't mind choppin' wood, and I don't care if the money's no good. [01:23.26] Take what you need and leave the rest, [01:26.75] But they should never have taken the very best." [01:33.24] (Chorus) [02:03.16] Like my father before me, I'm a working man [02:10.40] Like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand [02:17.53] He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave [02:25.16] I swear by the blood below my feet [02:28.59] You can't raise the cane back up when it's in the feed [02:35.22] (Chorus)
