From the 1978 film 'The Last Waltz' Virgil Caine is the name, and I served on the Danville train, Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again. In the winter of '65, We were hungry, just barely alive. By May tenth, Richmond had fell, it's a time I remember, oh so well, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, when all the bells were ringing, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin'. They went, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Back with my wife in Tennessee, When one day she called to me, Said "Virgil, quick, come and see, there goes the 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. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, when all the bells were ringing, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin'. They went, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Like my father before me, I will work the land, And like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand. He was just eighteen, proud and brave, But a Yankee laid him in his grave, And I swear by the mud below my feet, You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, when all the bells were ringing, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and all the people were singin'. They went, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,

Mar 9, 2010 - Grandaddy said one time he had him a right nice old dream that; "there were steamships going up and down the Hudson, Connecticut, Ohio Rivers with pretty big-hoop dress Belles on them, winging hips and spinning fancy-like parasols over their tiny feminine shoulders and fiddles playing "Dixie". That's when Granny unpleasntly awoken him from his dream in the hospital. He said he told the young female nurses there "to take their time washing him" when Granny was at home.

Mar 10, 2010 - Never forget the old wars. History is a string of wars strung together like so many beads. Every battle fought today started so many years ago. And when the victors try and take the very pride away from the defeated it just burns in their beaten hearts. The hatred is contagious to next generations and the battles are fought yet again for different reasons. And for the same all together..

Mar 14, 2010 - Yes. Levon Helms is it, fuck what a great voice. Gives me goosebumps. These boys make bands today sound so fucking thin, shitty and anemic, just what most are unfortunately . Harmony, Melody, soul, grit, intelligence,and rock and roll, they had it all going on in the Band.
BlindBoyGrunt09 Says:
Mar 14, 2010 - The Best, wished Elvis had covered this. Levon and the boys backing him, my dream gig, lol.
