I love this special live rendition. The brave men who gave everything for the South are my people and I couldn’t be more proud to claim and honor them. There’s actually some real history here. The lyrics tell of the last days of the Second War for Independence and the suffering of the South. Confederate soldier Virgil Caine “served on the Danville train” (the Richmond and Danville Railroad, a main supply line into the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia from Danville, Virginia, and by connection, the rest of the South). Union cavalry regularly tore up Confederate rail lines to prevent the movement of men and material to the front where Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia was besieged at the Siege of Petersburg. As part of the offensive campaign, Union Army General George Stoneman’s forces “tore up the track again.”
