This was recorded originally by The Band, and written by Robertson and the boys. Joan Baez made a name for everyone recording it in 1971. The original by the Band was very aggressive and southern.
I like the part about Robert E. Lee, a person I have immense respect for as a soldier and a person, both were exemplary. The Band is sort of mysterious to me musically and ethosly. I have read about the pink house and Dylan, I guess I am too young. Baez the same except I alwas and still consider her a babe.
My best friend growing up and probably still, (never have as close a friend as when you were 12, paraphrased from Steven King novelette) he was from Delaware so I always listened when I heard something about the Great general.
