* 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 singing, they went * * "Na, la, la, la, na, na * * La la, na, na
La, la, la, na, na" *
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 singing, they went * * "Na, la, la, la, na, na * * La la, na, na
La, la, la, na, na" *
