The Marshall Tucker Band "Can't You See" 

I suffer with depression. This releases me. Its comforting

Still one of the greatest pieces of music ever written. This song is timeless, I think Toy Caldwell knew that when he wrote it.

This helped get me through my divorce 4 years ago. Comforting words, great music,... great song all around.

Wish I could go back these days, some of the best southern rock came out at that time, we need it again

How does this masterpiece not have more views than this?

MTB always gives me a ‘snap back’ to out of high school 70’s. So much simpler time. Real people, real music and real life. Still works at 65

This 6 minute original is the only version for me. When the 3 minute 22 second radio edit version comes on, I feel cheated. This song is a most beautiful, comforting song for anyone who knows hurt and could use a hand to get up out of a rut. For all the feelings inspired over the decades, thank you Marshall Tucker Band.

They helped create the genre that would become "Southern Rock" and that was back in the early 70's. It was a blessed time for music. For the most part, they were allowed creative freedom. And we folks in the 70's had a steady stream of that creativity. New bands were coming out of the woodwork and they were "great". And radio was something you actually listened to. The 70's........you had to be there to understand. It was a musical evolution and we were there to witness it. We were most fortunate!!

My mom's brothers are the best uncles around. Big kids at heart. I know they loved the hell out of us. I know that passed to our kids. One of them passed this morning. So sad. I will always remember the tunes they jammed.

That acoustic intro from the first note just takes me to a different place. It's like a southern cultural experience and brings me right back to my childhood.

In my motorhome camped at the lake listening to this loud while bbqing with my wife and dog till Monday. Life is great and after 20 years im more in love with her everyday, she's my whole life.

Oh can't you see - we all came here to remember the 70s - because we lived it. It didn't take much to make us happy. Glad we're all here listening to this song. Never forget how to live your best life.

💓💓💓 Still one of the most beautiful songs ever written 💓💓💓

D C G D C G Amazing what great musicians can do with just three chords

I dedicated this song to my son when he was born in 91, still happily married ‘till this day!!!!!!

This song helps my depression and anxiety. It takes me to a peaceful place 🐦

I'm gonna take a freight train Down at the station, Lord I don't care where it goes Gonna climb a mountain The highest mountain I'll jump off, nobody gonna know Can't you see, whoa, can't you see What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me Can't you see, can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me I'm gonna find me A hole in the wall I'm gonna crawl inside and die 'Cause my lady, now A mean ol' woman, Lord Never told me goodbye Can't you see, ohh, can't you see What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me Can't you see, can't you see What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me I'm gonna buy a ticket, now As far as I can Ain't a-never comin' back Ride me a southbound All the way to Georgia, now Till the train, it run out of track Can't you see, ohh, can't you see What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me Can't you see, can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me Oh, Lord Can't you see, whoa, can't you see What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me Can't you see, whoa, can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me Can't you see (oh, she's such a crazy lady), can't you see What that woman (what that woman) she been doin' to me Can't you see (Lord, I can't stand), can't you see What that woman (ohh), she been doin' to me Can't you see (I'm gonna take a freight train) Can't you see (down at the station, Lord) What that woman, she been doin' to me (ain't never comin' back) oh oh Can't you see (gonna ride me a southbound, now) Can't you see (all the way to Georgia, Lord) What that woman, she been doin' to me (till the train run out of track), oh

Listening to or playing and singing this is so therapeutic for me. Everybody has had that feeling. It's like the Eagles Already Gone. Ages like a fine whiskey

I went from wanting to get on that freight train alone.. to 15 years later looking houses out of state to take my family with me

I listen to this song every time I get my heart broken to remind myself...they're the crazy ones 🏺♒

Here in May 2020 I need this music even more.

Much love out to everyone, everywhere Big hugs for everyone who needs one & to everyone who thinks they don’t need one..

I was born in 2008 and I can not tell you how much I would of loved to live in the 70s. Y’all are lucky but this song makes me happy and adventurous. So I’m fine as long as they don’t take this song off of RU-vid

Makes me really proud to be from Georgia. God knows, I love this state- “from the Rayburn gap to the Tybee light”

This band will always be a legend I seen them in concert 🎵 long time ago they were amazing 😻

Southern Rock was frickin' awesome! Classic music from the 70's.

I've listened to countless music really. This is the only song i go when i need a smile. Works every damn time

This was my life as a kid and carried onto to this day as well, only now I ride my Harley out of town. I am still the same man I always have been, fare, honest, and well spoken of. A man you do not want to cross.

Three chords....but the RIGHT three chords. Beautiful.

After all these years this song still stands the test of time and kicks ass "Semper Fi" Mr. Caldwell!!

What a smooth soothing song. I fucking love this song.

One of my grandpa's favorite bands, here's a shot for you, thanks for all the good memories

Good memories, and truth about how us men can feel... BTW: this is boomer music and I AM happy to say this! Classics are here forever.

Great Legendary Song RIP To The Caldwell Brothers Thank u Toy for all these Great Songs u Wrote.

Classics like this will never die. We may lose the great folks that wrote and sang them but the songs they leave behind means that they'll be with us forever because Legends Never Die. --- Frank Maxfield, March 6 2020, 4:00 am in the morning---

The pain I feel everytime at 3:54 is like any other. I love this song so much. To play that part on my guitar always breaks me. God what that woman did to me.

Country rock at it's finest

Wish those little pretty eyes could see....just how much i need and miss her. I love you my beautiful daughter Andrea

Saw these guys back in the day, in the 70's. Man, those were some fun times. Long time ago...

Absolutely love how this song speaks to me.

I played this song in a rock band in the 70s and play it today in my midi show. My ear drum burst during a Tucker concert. Never heard a band with a mix that loud indoor....Bayfront Civic Center. St. Petersburg Fla. 1979

Just doesn't get any better than this......one of my favorite songs and thankful I have CPR and JC and the boys to do an absolutely amazing cover of it..... love my Home Grown Carolina Boys.

I love this song so much.

Dont anyone forget, that the singer did tour in Nam!

An emotional masterpiece with exceptional vocals and beautiful guitar work. One of the all-time great songs. Can't you see how great it is?

I've had a lot of people in my life who said that they "would always be there for me", but unfortunately, just kinda came and went, and once they left my life, they didn't say goodbye, so this song really resonates for me, making me feel betrayed, feeling like they just abandoned me, not unlike the narrator of this song feeling abandoned by his ex-lover. I can relate to his feelings about no one noticing if anything were to happen to him. According to the song's Wikipedia article, country singer, Waylon Jennings did a cover version. I can see how country artists would do cover versions of southern rock songs. Southern rock lends itself well to country. This song's melancholic overtones are also heavily associated with country music. One of the most unique things about The Marshall Tucker Band is that they had a flute player (Jerry Eubanks) whose playing can be heard at the beginning and end of this song. In spite of their name, none of the band members were actually named "Marshall Tucker", and the regular lead vocalist was Doug Gray (although lead guitarist, Toy Caldwell, does the lead vocals here, while regular lead singer, Doug Gray, wasn't part of this song). The other members included bassist Tommy Caldwell (who I believe was Toy Caldwell's brother), rhythm guitarist George McCorkle and drummer Paul Riddle. Harmony vocals were typically sung by flute player Jerry Eubanks (who also played saxophone on several tracks, and occasionally played keyboards) and bassist Tommy Caldwell. For this particular song, Jai "Jaimoe" Johanny Johansson (better known as a drummer for The Allman Brothers Band) provided percussion, and producer, Paul Hornsby, played the keyboards. On The Marshall Tucker Band's first several albums, producer, Paul Hornsby, played virtually all the keyboard parts.

It doesn't get any better than this.

I hope everyone is doin fine.

One'a the best musical pieces ever concieved

This is a classic...there is so much emotion in his voice.....one of my favs of all time...gonna take a train till it run out of track.....gonna find me a hole crawl inside and die........deep .....really deep

Soooo much better than the short version......very much more deep. That guitar, this soul, this bass......i love it. Its just the best quality version available on RU-vid.❤

If this song doesn't hit you I feel sorry for you, but at the same time I am jealous.

🥀Beautiful Sad Love Song! Leave it up to Marshall Tucker Band only they can write great song's like this it's priceless🥀☝️

I hate people sometimes it just seems nobody my age cares about anyone but themselves and im 18. I love nice classics like this. Still relevant 50 years later.

This song played on a Spotify or Pandora radio station last year in our IT office. Ever since discovering this song, once it comes on in my playlist, it gets played on repeat at least 5 more times.

If this song isn’t at my funeral I’m not going!!

Never seen someone hate that woman so much...may you have peace

First woman I dated in college took me to a Marshall Tucker concert, and I remember the powerful effect this song had on me. It is a universal expression of the despair and heartbreak you feel when love ends and a future without her is impossible to imagine...

Whatever happened to the KEG PARTIES, Just hangin outside, BS'n with everyone, smokin, drinking, jammin, smiles on our faces and a solo cup in one hand , and trying to get a cigarette in between doobs but can't 😋

This song debuted 10 years before I was born and I consider it to be one of the greatest pieces of music ever created. No wayyy I can hit Caldwell's notes, but moving forward, karaoke night, an intimidating entry to the stage but you only live once haha

Thank you for the music ! Everyone in Texas stay strong, and please enjoy something! 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

1979 Vancouver BC Pacific Colosseum and they were damn good!

Easily Top 10 song of all time...everything about this perfect

BEAUTIFUL!

Beautiful song. It's been on my mind all day. Love it.

Southern Rock at its BEST!

Now that's music !!! Southern Rock Rocks!!

love this version. the extended intro makes it so much better :)

Wish these guys were in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.. If this isn't an iconic song that had an impact on our culture then what is? The guitar playing is mind blowing good,. You can hear and feel the emotion he is conveying.

Seeing MTB was Louisiana State Fair in 1986. We were lucky enough to stand at the stage. Hell of a show! Only time I got to see them.

1961 was smoking hot music when we listened to it for pleasure with NO agenda

Love this song!

I'm 15 and enjoy this kind of music so much ☺️

Mamma D here. Remember when you could go out in the country to someone's field for a concert☮️🌀🌀

WITHOUT ANY APOLOGIZES. I was just thrown back to my childhood...... I was 12, or 13, and my next door neighbor was having a party. Saturday afternoon, early evening. Loud music. LIVE.Loud music. I was glad to hear it! I went to the fence. (DON'T TELL ME YOU WOULDN'T HAVE DONE IT, TO! I'LL CALL YOU ON IT! ) Shortening the story, There is a venue, too small for #Steve Martin to play. The Santa Fe Banjo, and Fiddle Contest. My next door neighbor, founded it!

This song remember me one woman which left me and at the same time I discover this song. Then, I connect me with the band. This song is for me

one of the great southern rock bands

Best time of my life was when I saw them in the summer of 74 at the Ozark Music Festival in Sedalia MO,

The greatest band to ever live rock on may have been the best southern rock band in history !

I'm gonna take a freight train, down at the station I don't care where it goes Gonna climb me a mountain, the highest mountain Jump off, nobody gonna know Can't you see oh can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me Can't you see, can't you see What that woman lord been doin' to me I'm gonna find me a hole in the wall I gonna crawl inside and die 'Cause my lady now, mean ol' woman lord, never told me goodbye Can't you see oh can't you see What that woman lord she been doin' to me Can't you see, can't you see What that woman lord been doin' to me I gonna buy me a ticket now, as far as I can Ain't a-never comin' back Ride me a Southbound All the way to Georgia now Till the train run out of track Can't you see oh can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me Can't you see, can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me, oh lord Can't you see oh can't you see What that woman lord she been doin' to me Can't you see oh can't you see What that woman, she been doin' to me Can't you see (oh she's such a crazy lady) can't you see What that woman (what a woman) she been doin' to me Can't you see (lord I can't stand) oh can't you see What that woman, oh she been doin' to me Can't you see (I'm gonna take a freight train) can't you see (I'm down at the station lord) what that woman (ain't never gonna go back) been doin' to me Can't you see oh can't you see (gonna ride me the southbound) (All the way to Georgia) what that woman (till the train run out of track) been doin' to me

This is American art at its finest

set the mood always a good easy tune... great job guys always a classic........

I miss the gd old days. Love this music.

Oh, man I love this song. Just playing along with it now, I noticed that while I think of this song as being in D mixolydian, Toy doesn't really play that C natural very much in his solos. He sticks to the D major scale, and really works that 2nd to the major 3rd bend. It's what gives this song such a sweet feel over a chord progression that many guitar players would work more of a blues feel into. And that tone!!! It's a classic album from top to bottom, and I always get a little weepy during Ab's song, though it's way to late for me to die at 23! Thanks for posting this full length version, the only way to go.

I saw them at a bike rally in Humboldt, Iowa. Good show!

The first time I saw them was on the "Midnight Special". They were the guest host. They opened with "Ramblin". I was probably 16 years old and really trying to learn to play guitar. I've been a huge honk ever since.

These songs are awsome

Great song, reminds me of my High School days, surfing, and partying afterwards...

Priceless.

What a great classic tune

What a great song.

Reminds me of my ex girlfriends and I love The Marshall Tucker Band such a classic

How can I not subscribe to this channel 👏🏼👏🏼

Such a classic song from this era!
