I am 57 years old. Playing flute in church for a few years. Play this song with a rock band tonight for the 1st time on my live on stage can't tell you how glorious I feel
Sara, we don't realise what we have until they are gone. It's been 10 years now and I still miss both my parents. My dad past 29 days after my mum and I told him at my mother's funeral that he didn't have to hang on. He had suffered a major stroke years before and hung on for my mums sake. Married 4 months after meeting and married for 50 years that is ❤️
My grandpa John was the roadie for Marshall tucker band for many years helping them set up and tear down stages along the way as well as becoming friends with them all. I’ve had the chance to meet them all and they are truly great people
Omg. Thank you,. I grew up like this too. Not as glamorous but, y'know. And it made me a really kind, enjoyable person...to grow up in rock and roll. I don't judge folks.
@@JoyLearnSallay very true!! A simpler kind of life!! Nothing taken for granted. Everyone deserves everything in my eyes. Able to see the bigger picture from a very young age!
Hi I did the same for some bands, we were bring in some big stacks I was carring one by my self when you want man right here,then he says you know John it has wheels I said I didn't notice and brought in three more!!!
I remember being a toddler my dad shaving for work. Am radio on listening to this song He is now 86, I am 53. My mom has passed away. Now I go over to help him shave. I will play this song on his olexa. His memory is good. He will love this. Thanks so much.
Beautiful memory of your parents and this song. I'm 12 years older than you and born and bred in Los Angeles friggin' CA. But I was a serious rock bass player back in the Hollywood/Pasadena days, and Marshall Tucker's music truly spoke to me then, as it does to this day. Tell you the truth, "Heard It In A Love Song" just about tells the story about me and a girl friend in the past. She WAS the one but I always kept "thinking about tomorrow today". Damnit. Still brings tears to this rambler's eyes. Blessings to your dad.
Man....... I'm 29 and have a son, and I think a lot about my parents in their 50's and the day they leave this earth..I pray it's not for another couple decades, but it brings tears to my eyes to think about it. Life is so short and I realize this every year after another...man... this made me cry.. May your loved ones RIP
@@BlankScreenSessions Almost no words to say, except that I'm a decade older than your parents and when I was 29 I had the world before me. And so do you. But life ends. My wife and I have lost all our parents by now, but our siblings are still kicking. Even now, I can not imagine that my beautiful life's partner will depart this earth someday. Just don't think about it. Live your life for now. Work hard and raise your family. And this song still makes me cry inside. All Blessings to you.
Forever a fan. Saw them live in concert once in the early 70s and then my wife and I stopped at a place on east colonial Dr they were playing there for one night that was in 1984. 350 people max...Fantastic show. Unbelievable that they were playing there. Lost my hearing for a few hours but it was worth it. The best of Southern rock and roll....
One question,does the #57 you mentioned. , is that you or your friend's age at the time and also the number 72 was that the year that you guys I got acquainted with a song or was it a record of 72 record that you heard the song on I don't think so I'll believe it would be a 33 I don't know to help me out here I'm lost I'm just very curious and I'm talking text so I may not have made any sense or nothing for you to understand me help me out thank you cool song
I'm a child of the Boomer generation (70 years old) and I am blessed to have grown up with the begining of a music revolution that still exist with the songs and artists who to this day are classic and never get tired of listening too.

My daddy was a singer and songwriter and also played lead and rhythm guitar. This song was one of his favorites. I lost my dad this past June... I'm crying right now!!!
I think your daddy would be proud to know that you're listening to one of his favorite songs. Let those tears be tears of joy; he would probably want it that way.
I was working in security with a cool older white man named Mr.Toddwick. My girlfriend broke up with me after 7 years and I was crushed I mean destroyed Mr. Toddwick let me take a shot of his whiskey put this song on for me and told me to just listen. Man, when I say this song hits too the heart and soul. He looked at me and said this is what he listened to after his wife divorced and took his daughters and moved to Wales. Great Man Mr Toddwick was. Bless That Man And Marshall Tucker
You're a lucky man to have a friend like Mr Toddwick. Glad to hear you listened to him and this song, lots of hard won wisdom in both. Hope you're doing better...
I used to sing this song to my daughter while rockin her to sleep in the middle of the night. She said to me one day when it came on the radio "i like this tune". I never told her why she did until after she said that and she just smiled. Life is grand.
❤so adorable on a funnier note my dad always used to sing *do do doooo looking out my back door* while simultaneously looking out our back kitchen door. when I found out that was a song I was like omg 😅 he laughed hard. thought it was just something he made up lmao fast forward to when my younger sister hears it 1st time and i got to do the hardy laugh like my dad did at me when I was mesmerized i thought my dad's lyrics were famous for a second lmaooo
I remember driving from an old gf's house when I was young. She lived in Arizona and I lived in California. I was in the middle of nowhere young and heartbroken. This song came on the radio... I can't explain what it did but I cried like a baby. When it was done I felt new... I stopped and ran through a field. I really felt like I learned more about myself that day. I'm so happy this song was made.
My best friend and I went to this concert our freshman year of college in 1981. She passed away in December 2020, and when I heard this song tonight, I wanted to call her so badly! Still hurts but the memories are like yesterday ❤️
I feel you! My friend Randy who I met when we were 7 year olds in 1980 were best friends for 41 years until his passing last year. We used to get drunk and jam to this all the time but now he is gone and I feel so alone without him. RIP to your friend and mine. Think I'll have a drink for the both of them. 🍻
Me too I just ran across these videos. Yes I say find God your heart I was super depressed since 91 and was listening Rock . I catch myself glancing back now
62 years old and still get chills listening to this. Been married to my bride for 31 years and still have a lot of good years ahead of us. Let the craziness pass us by and keep on livin'!
“I’m gonna climb a mountain, the highest mountain and jump off nobody gonna know” I’ve just heard this song for the first time, I can literally feel that line in my soul
Instant happiness. My favorite song since I was 12 I'm 56 now and though there is a mass of great blues rock tunes out there. Nothing scratches that itch quite like cant you see
My uncle passed away last month. He told me before he past knowing that it was coming. "Buddy whenever you hear that song il be right there next to you" ❤ i miss you. Rest easy old man. Was his favorite song!
i wish i was black.. im gonna get the operation once the goverment can figure it out and fund it. maybe even have operations so i can play pretend as a woman.... just waiting on your tax dollars, bros then be like cant you see?
Born in 1958 I grew up in Spartanburg, SC and picked a little with a buddy, Stuart Swanlund, who went on to play with the Marshall Tucker Band starting in the 1980's. My Mom & Dad used to come over and watch Stuart and us play music at his house as he lived only one street over from me. That boy could pick a guitar like nobody's business - even when he was just 15 years old. Mom, Dad and Stuart are gone now. I live in Florida these days, but when I hear the opening notes of this song I get a little lump in my throat thinking of home and lost loved ones. P.S. Thank you Doug Gray for treating my 3 daughters like princesses whenever we would come see you all play in Florida through the years.
I have sailed with Jake and now I'm at home dealing with my wife with cancer and I listen to these guys singing and they inspire me to be a better man . ❤
I've heard many songs today that utilize the strings, orchestral. My favorite rock band of today tours with a cello and violin. But yeah, not many have winds today. I saw a foo fighters acoustic set that had a violinist also. The only classic rock band that comes to mind is Kansas with the violin, but there are probably others.
I was a very "short for my age 5 year old" when this song came out. My sister played this song over and over on the record. My short self would be in the back yard, the grass being up to my eyeballs. The sun was warm, the wind was gentle, the grass was soft, and the earth was rich. It felt like this song poured the warmth, and the gentleness, and the softness in to my soul. I felt safe and content, with the smell of thee evening meal wafting through my back yard. I remember the melodies and note of this song would carry my imagination to the spent days events. The magic of youth and the eternity of a 5 year olds imagination would make the past events seem much more sensational than reality. To this day when I hear this song. I time travel back to when I was a barefoot 5 year, sinning around in circles, in the soft grass, under that warm sun, in the path of that gentle breeze, till I got dizzy, thinking it was dancing, so damn happy to be alive.
This song my friend brings the clock back to a time that can never be duplicated no matter how hard technology tries. This is truly a blessing and reminds me of real people real friends and a country that comes together to enjoy each other's small accomplishments
No auto tune.... No pathetic, repetitious tripe... No sampling.... Real honest lyrics with real honest music played on real instruments... This music will never return.
Something interesting I read: Toy Caldwell, who died of heart failure in 1993, was the band's guitarist and wrote most of their songs. His wife Abbie Caldwell told us: "He didn't read music, and played by ear. He jotted down words on any piece of paper available."
RedGeoBlaze I hate modern music, especially the commercial shit that is spewed all over the television, I just mute commercials now...but I was born in the 80's so I tend to appreciate all that came before me, not the other way around...I know what you mean though...
RedGeoBlaze, I hear you (brother or sister)... loud and clear, I listen to music from the fifteenth century to the 19190s. Sometimes I make my own. I’m not much of a guitarist, but I like what I come up with. I play for my wife, my brothers, my nieces, my nephew, my mom & stepfather & of course for me. I’ve Never been able to play anyone else’s music, but songs like this inspire me. I like the progressions, the pick patterns, the tone, timbre & inspiration in songs like this.
Marshall Tucker was a blind piano tuner in Spartanburg SC. The Caldwell bros and few others moved into Marshall's former building to record music. They saw his name on the door and said, what the hell, we are the Marshall Tucker Band. I shit you not.
Man tears come when i hear this song. 62 years old and miss my friends, family who passed away and those ole days of partying carefree! Time passed so quickly!
Time sure does pass fast and I'm just 55. Friends family missing now. And gosh aches and pains grow ever year. But nobody said we getting out alive sir. Great song to listen to
December 1955 John! What a wonderful time to be born! What a wonderful life growing up. I was born at the Army Hospital at Fort Jackson, Columbia SC. But moved to the mountains of Western NC when I was 2.

1975 to 1981 created the most awesome music available to humanity. The artists were so versed in their craft it produced incredible work. It began to die around Madonna and Wham. It's been dying ever since. A few exceptions here and there, but dying none the less.
+Max Mccool Showing my solidarity here. Even though I am a chick, it happened to me too. Like the live version, he didn't even say good bye to me even though we were together for 8 and a half years.
+Max Mccool Shit I have one that I never even slept with. And no I'm not talking about my mother. This woman was just my goddess and I couldn't even touch her. Call me a fool but it made me the very strong person I am now.. Ah the perils of being friendzoneded after being too pussy to score when given multiple opportunities.
I was born 1959 Houston Texas Mexican American I joined the Navy 1976 I had a boom box on board the ship and would always play this beautiful song my friends from up north would ask me where is that music from I would reply from down south! Peace out to everyone 👍💪😎 Paul Garcia.
Listened to this when I went to Michigan State in the mid-seventies. Never got tired of it. RIP Toy, you were a heck of a guitarist and wrote some fine songs.
Operation Praying Mantis USS Enterprise-Norpac/Westpac 88-89. Rocked out the entire time we bombed Iran. No Joke! Anchors AwayI wish you Clear skies and Calm Seas My Brother.
your so right. today's music has no soul, no depth, no feeling. Today's music is just fake. They're kids singing about things they've never felt or experienced.
Y'all are just looking in the wrong places. There's significantly more music today than there has ever been before, so a lot of this style gets lost among the chaff.
I was going to take a road trip with my ex and things didn't work out, I went alone and this played on the radio, I sang my broken heart out, felt like a brand new man after that. Stoped on the side of the road and watched the sunset, I felt so free! God bless America!
Driving down the gravel roads back home with my best buddies in the world. All of us singing along as we're headed out to go fishing for the day. God, it was great times.
This was my mom and dad's song. They'd both always turn up the radio when this song came on. My dad passed away in 2018, and whenever I hear this I feel like it's him saying hello. Always makes me cry.
When I hear this song, an image pops into my head of a bunch of friends hanging out outside, kicking back and having some brews, just relaxing and enjoying life. I wish I could have been a young adult in the 70's.
Cant you see, cant you see, what these drugs have done to me, I tried to chase a dragon,all across the nation, i could never catch up , Just when i thought i had it ,it was too much,Thank god someone woke me up, Cant you see, Cant you see, another life, God gave to me...
Can picture everything Toy’s singing here, a tale as old has time. They sure were storytellers their harmonies & musicianship are off the charts great. A favorite band.
The love of my life would sing this to me, and after we parted ways, it was hard to listen to. But now I find it so invigorating and healing, in a way. I love this band and I love this song, so much!
I crank up Seger so loud the pavement cracks even down on mainstreet. Seger represented us everyday workfolk in our youth and his music is here for us as we reach roadmarkers along the road if life. Thanks Mr. seger.
Strange, the older I get, I find myself listening the music of my Youth … was in High School when this was popular … Still love this music. Thank You for keeping MUSIC alive!
Loved this song from when my boyfriend broke up with me. Devastated isn’t the word. He dated the girl he always wanted to date! This song was my comfort! We were married 44 years & God took him! Miss you mike more than anyone will never know!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
OH MY LORD!!! I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!! HAVE FOR QUITE AWHILE! HOWEVER, I AM IN LUST WITH LEAD SINGER!!!! THOSE DIMPLES, THAT SMILE. FILLS OUT THOSE JEANS EXTREMELY NICE. AND HIS VOICE.....I COULD LISTEN TO HIS VOICE EVEN IF HE SANG HAPPY BDAY, OR JUST SAID THE SKY IS BLUE. I AM ONLY 68...A RECONSTITUTED TEENAGER, AND NOT BAD FOR AN OLD BROAD, I'VE BEEN TOLD. OH MY LORD!!! I'M NOT DEAD YET!!! HEEHEE HAVE A BLESSED YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!! .
+Patrick Wagz I love Arlo Guthrie! "Good morning, America, how are you? Say, don't you know me? I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City Of New Orleans I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done"
how do you descibe a song that hits your soul for the best menories in your life driving with the top down 1972 in a ford mustang with this song blasting friends in the backseat smokeing a joint on a hot summer day with no where to go but drive the good old days tears are streaming
Memories.. I saw them all in concert way back in the 70's. Tucker. Skynard, 38 special, Johnny Edgar Winter, Bob Seger's very first show. Queen, Thin Lizzy, Frampton Comes Alive tour, Gary Wright, Jimmy Buffet before anyone knew much about him... Yes. ELO, KISS 6 times, Led, Cheap Trick, Aerosmith, Montrose. Now my dementia is kicking in but there was many many more. That Blotter if you know what that was...I lived through it. What a great time. I had. Now I'm old but still willing!!!
driving to St. Louis while my grandma was in Barnes Hospital on her death bed and this song played as I passed the arch... she pulled out of it and survived 4 more years... but I won't forget my best friend consoling me at the winery and she ended up dying sooner of cancer..... what a fucked up world... I love them both and wish they were both still here
I saw this band so many times back in the 1970's from a opening act for 2 other bands to a headliner with an arena full of Southern Rock Fans. They were a tight, fresh band and an unique sound. RIP Toy Caldwell.
+1stSaintsFan Me too. Had the pleasure of being back stage during an outdoor concert. It poured rain just before they took to the stage. While waiting we all had a huge tug of war over a huge mud puddle. My pictures of this are funny as hell. Loved this concert the best of all that I attended that year.
+1stSaintsFan I'm 30. Roughly 20 years too late to experience many great songs when the world, and the greatest country (USA, melting pot of the world) were finding what limits...and ultimately couldn't be found in music. The time when electronic was forming, and almost every other existing genre was at its peak. not only that without this foundation, many newer genres wouldn't have existed. If only I could have seen the 60, and 70s. Every decade has its highs and lows but damn America was on fire musically. Must have been the acid.
Trust me we were on fire back in the 70's. Didn't have the headaches that so many of today's kids have now. The music just kept coming stronger with so many great musicians
Jon T And around the college towns at least in the South, we had great college radio stations, clubs and musicians. We got great imported Hashish. Black Afghani & Lebanese Blonde were everywhere in my circles, plus the pharma was plentiful and potent along with our La. Magic Mushrooms. lol
we named my son after them we lost him in February of 2013 he was 35 his birthday is this Friday March 18th they're playing here in Tucson Az this Friday on his birthday I'd give anything to see them but don't have the money but what a heavenly message from my son 💔
I’m 19 years old in 2019 and I would rather listen to this music that has heart and soul, I love the time and energy the artist put into the instrumentals of these songs. The music pulls you in and the words take you away.
Lost my dad at 17 had to learn how to be a man on my own and raise a child by myself, proud to say my girl just graduated with honors from university, yay me

Great Man Mr Toddwick was. Bless That Man And Marshall Tucker
Go Mr toddwick
You're a lucky man to have a friend like Mr Toddwick. Glad to hear you listened to him and this song, lots of hard won wisdom in both. Hope you're doing better...
@paulfly3121 Yeah I'm doing better and thanks for asking. Sometimes all you need is a wise friend and a great song to get you through it.
I'm glad you looked past his whiteness.
@morrison1405 Color doesn't matter im not racist but to tell the story right I have to provide evidence.
I used to sing this song to my daughter while rockin her to sleep in the middle of the night. She said to me one day when it came on the radio "i like this tune". I never told her why she did until after she said that and she just smiled. Life is grand.
❤Beautiful x
I rocked my son to me singing Otis Redding's The Dock of the Bay. Time to test him. I hope he tells me the same. ❤
Who's chopping onions around here?
❤so adorable
on a funnier note my dad always used to sing *do do doooo looking out my back door* while simultaneously looking out our back kitchen door. when I found out that was a song I was like omg 😅 he laughed hard. thought it was just something he made up lmao fast forward to when my younger sister hears it 1st time and i got to do the hardy laugh like my dad did at me when I was mesmerized i thought my dad's lyrics were famous for a second lmaooo
I remember driving from an old gf's house when I was young. She lived in Arizona and I lived in California. I was in the middle of nowhere young and heartbroken. This song came on the radio... I can't explain what it did but I cried like a baby. When it was done I felt new... I stopped and ran through a field. I really felt like I learned more about myself that day. I'm so happy this song was made.
That’s awesome to think about dude. Hope I can feel as free as you did one day. Thanks for sharing!
@Ryan LaFreniere also sounds wonderful.
I hope your life turned out the way you expected Ivan , thanks for sharing . Our experiences make us who we are .
Great story! Thanks for sharing.
Great story Ivan. Music has the power to help heal a broken heart.
One of the greatest southern rock anthems ever written , timeless!
Reo speedwagon
Time for me to fly

My best friend and I went to this concert our freshman year of college in 1981. She passed away in December 2020, and when I heard this song tonight, I wanted to call her so badly! Still hurts but the memories are like yesterday ❤️
I feel you! My friend Randy who I met when we were 7 year olds in 1980 were best friends for 41 years until his passing last year. We used to get drunk and jam to this all the time but now he is gone and I feel so alone without him. RIP to your friend and mine. Think I'll have a drink for the both of them. 🍻
Peace
My Harley friend Bob was killed by a drunk on his way home from a biker show that was his jam miss you Bobbie bear 🙏🕯️🕊️🤘🎸🎙️
We are all here with you. life is rich,
Sorry to hear about your loss, music is such a powerful thing and can really bring back persons and memories etc , Stay strong best regards // F
The thing about " Can't you see"is the lyrics tell a depressing tale while the music lifts you along. It never gets old.
Perfectly said. 👍♥️😘
👍 Words of Wisdom! Yep! Words of Wisdom! 🎵=🔑

Classic. And after almost 50 years, it still brings chills.
True
You must have married my ex-wife are at the very least dated her. LOL
It's some song
I might be old, but I got to see all the cool bands 😁
We're not old just experienced. I wouldn't trade my life's experiences for all the chocolate pies in the world.
Back when it only cost $25 for a ticket and a t-shirt cost around $20.
Those were the good old days my friend.
Me too
I used to see all the bands at a place called
The Warehouse in New Orleans
Same
Me too. Saw them in Kansas City around 1978.
“I’m gonna climb a mountain, the highest mountain and jump off nobody gonna know”
I’ve just heard this song for the first time, I can literally feel that line in my soul
Keep your head up. Remember after every dark night is a bright day. God bless you
Yeah buddy....but don't jump off....life has many turns and surprises rejoicing and joy yet for you.
Recently had my heart betrayed a obliterated after sharing my whole life with is woman for 11 years. Hang in there brother.
married 21years, together 25, she wanted a different lifestyle so im starting over, itll be ok bro
But can you feel the mountain wind...
No matter what’s heavy on your mind, put this on, grab a cold one, lean back in the chair and you’ll feel better for a few moments.
Well said Sir! Hell yeah!
It really does sooth the soul.
Also another one of my soothing tunes is
Hank Jr.=Looking at the Rain
Instant happiness. My favorite song since I was 12 I'm 56 now and though there is a mass of great blues rock tunes out there. Nothing scratches that itch quite like
cant you see
Your not lyin!
Amen bro, cheers…
My uncle passed away last month. He told me before he past knowing that it was coming. "Buddy whenever you hear that song il be right there next to you" ❤ i miss you. Rest easy old man.
Was his favorite song!

Your uncle had great taste in tunes. RIP

He took the freight train, all the way to Georgia, he aint never coming back. RIP

Born in 1958 I grew up in Spartanburg, SC and picked a little with a buddy, Stuart Swanlund, who went on to play with the Marshall Tucker Band starting in the 1980's. My Mom & Dad used to come over and watch Stuart and us play music at his house as he lived only one street over from me. That boy could pick a guitar like nobody's business - even when he was just 15 years old. Mom, Dad and Stuart are gone now. I live in Florida these days, but when I hear the opening notes of this song I get a little lump in my throat thinking of home and lost loved ones. P.S. Thank you Doug Gray for treating my 3 daughters like princesses whenever we would come see you all play in Florida through the years.
@XGamerZoca Thank you sir.
Loved reading this comment.
@@replicas11 Thank you.
Thank you mom for raising me on classic rock. They don’t make music like this anymore.
I think mine too..
Hi
My Mamma raised me on a wide variety of music but I raised my babies on good old rock and roll. Always dialed into the classic station in the car!!!!
there's alot of new great music and bands but they get no radio play gotta find it
This is the shit when a woman done hit a man so hard
I have sailed with Jake and now I'm at home dealing with my wife with cancer and I listen to these guys singing and they inspire me to be a better man . ❤

Love how 70s bands used flute so much! Not locked into some prejudice where rock only includes drums, keyboards, guitars... So mellow and sublime.
Saw them but no flute. Not the original group. They sounded terrible!!
I've heard many songs today that utilize the strings, orchestral. My favorite rock band of today tours with a cello and violin. But yeah, not many have winds today. I saw a foo fighters acoustic set that had a violinist also. The only classic rock band that comes to mind is Kansas with the violin, but there are probably others.
Song's been on repeat for the last 24 hours because it really resonates with the pain inside . Thank you Marshall Tucker Band :)
It's going to be okay
better with time , friend ❤
I hear ya that's why I looked for it tonight.
Keep your head up every day brother.
It’s my go to….come out on the other side my friend🌺
My go-to song. Be Well.
If you don't like The Marshall Tucker Band...we probably wouldn't get along.
Got that right 👍🏻😊
Long lost brother!!!
@mrsvickigriffin long lost sister!
Brilliant 👍
Fucking A Right

I was a very "short for my age 5 year old" when this song came out. My sister played this song over and over on the record. My short self would be in the back yard, the grass being up to my eyeballs. The sun was warm, the wind was gentle, the grass was soft, and the earth was rich. It felt like this song poured the warmth, and the gentleness, and the softness in to my soul. I felt safe and content, with the smell of thee evening meal wafting through my back yard. I remember the melodies and note of this song would carry my imagination to the spent days events. The magic of youth and the eternity of a 5 year olds imagination would make the past events seem much more sensational than reality. To this day when I hear this song. I time travel back to when I was a barefoot 5 year, sinning around in circles, in the soft grass, under that warm sun, in the path of that gentle breeze, till I got dizzy, thinking it was dancing, so damn happy to be alive.
+Gerald Moreno Your description made me feel like I was right there with you. Oh to be young again.
Get by your self and put this sonmg on repeat. You will be young, for awhile anyay.
+Gerald Moreno Sure do miss those days...they still come around every once in a while. :)
Gerald Moreno Stay young in our hearts...
And we will forever hold our most cherished moments.
Oh yeah, for real. AI mean I never really came out of the 70,s
I'm 56, I have a 3 yo son, I played this song and he said, "I love this song dad!"
Love it!
It's a good song
MashaAllah, Kiss Ur Cute Son Buddy
Now that's raising your kid right. Good music never dies.
Dennis Alcazar He's 3 you could have played Fuck the police by NWA and he would have said the same thing!
This song my friend brings the clock back to a time that can never be duplicated no matter how hard technology tries. This is truly a blessing and reminds me of real people real friends and a country that comes together to enjoy each other's small accomplishments
Your generation managed to put the country in the position it is currently in
No auto tune....
No pathetic, repetitious tripe...
No sampling....
Real honest lyrics with real honest music played on real instruments...
This music will never return.
This song, SUCH A GREAT CLASSIC
Pessimistic much
Something interesting I read: Toy Caldwell, who died of heart failure in 1993, was the band's guitarist and wrote most of their songs. His wife Abbie Caldwell told us: "He didn't read music, and played by ear. He jotted down words on any piece of paper available."
You clearly dont know good music...
But this will never die .
I love this comment section. This song means so many different things to so many people. Sending love to you all ❤️♥️
U got that rite
Yup
Best comment section ever!
Sending love right back at ya...way out in Hawaii...ALOHA🤙🏼🤙🏼

Ok.ppl

I wonder if anyone else is sick of Modern music, and is looking to the old classics for something good to fill up a music playlist.
RedGeoBlaze I hate modern music, especially the commercial shit that is spewed all over the television, I just mute commercials now...but I was born in the 80's so I tend to appreciate all that came before me, not the other way around...I know what you mean though...
RedGeoBlaze hell yeah brother
RedGeoBlaze, I hear you (brother or sister)... loud and clear, I listen to music from the fifteenth century to the 19190s. Sometimes I make my own. I’m not much of a guitarist, but I like what I come up with. I play for my wife, my brothers, my nieces, my nephew, my mom & stepfather & of course for me.
I’ve Never been able to play anyone else’s music, but songs like this inspire me. I like the progressions, the pick patterns, the tone, timbre & inspiration in songs like this.
Damn I wonder what music from the 19190s will sound like.
you hit the nail on the head
I was lucky to hear this amazing song when it was brand new...timeless!
Marshall Tucker was a blind piano tuner in Spartanburg SC. The Caldwell bros and few others moved into Marshall's former building to record music. They saw his name on the door and said, what the hell, we are the Marshall Tucker Band. I shit you not.
When I saw them in the 80's they had a blind piano player in the backround
truth
that is awesome info. thank you very much
Awesome
stonelove919 cool story man
Man tears come when i hear this song. 62 years old and miss my friends, family who passed away and those ole days of partying carefree! Time passed so quickly!
Time sure does pass fast and I'm just 55. Friends family missing now. And gosh aches and pains grow ever year. But nobody said we getting out alive sir. Great song to listen to
61 brother and yes we miss our friends and family. Some good times.
This is real Southern Rock! I was born in 1955 so I lived through this era. Great music great cars, and great girls!!
Perfect Kevin !
Yeah ha
Kevin Yarbrough me too 1955 April
December 1955 John! What a wonderful time to be born! What a wonderful life growing up. I was born at the Army Hospital at Fort Jackson, Columbia SC. But moved to the mountains of Western NC when I was 2.
Kevin Yarbrough god bless you and you're famley
One of the greatest songs ever written. It resonates with my heart and soul ❤️
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
Ugh this song hits so good. Can’t believe I forgot about this band till very recently. Nothing like rediscovering a band like this
And rediscover bob seger.
I'm only twelve, and I can tell they will never make iconic music like this anymore. This will be my favorite song for as long as I live.
Rock on little bro.. You've got great taste.. Maybe u can make something similar 👍👍
@@alejandroontiveros7052 What's funny is I'm mostly a metal head. Love ya broship. Rock on with me to this song mate.
All the way to Georgia. till the train run out of tracks!! Lol rock on bro!!! The the beat OF UR OWN DRUMMER!! 🤟🤟
@@alejandroontiveros7052 REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe
One of em kid. Keep searchin..you aint seen nothing yet.
1975 to 1981 created the most awesome music available to humanity. The artists were so versed in their craft it produced incredible work.
It began to die around Madonna and Wham. It's been dying ever since. A few exceptions here and there, but dying none the less.
My grandpa, Jeff Quinn took his last breath to this song today
Im sorry to hear of your loss.
May the road to Heaven sustain him along its golden path.
God bless you and your family, I pray that this song serves as a great memory of your Grandfather, PEACE!!
Damn dude that's hits deep god bless you and your grandpa.
Sorry.
Sorry for your loss.
So glad my dad raise me on this music make miss my dad very much.
I'm sorry, he must've been a great guy. Surely raised you right.
I miss my dad too- this was one of his favorites...
I miss my dad to bro
Same for me
Miss mine too........
I'm old and been here and there....all dudes feel this at one time in their lives....if they've lived.
You got that right! Just went through a divorce, but I'm gonna keep on keepin' on!
+Max Mccool Showing my solidarity here. Even though I am a chick, it happened to me too. Like the live version, he didn't even say good bye to me even though we were together for 8 and a half years.
+Max Mccool Shit I have one that I never even slept with. And no I'm not talking about my mother.
This woman was just my goddess and I couldn't even touch her.
Call me a fool but it made me the very strong person I am now..
Ah the perils of being friendzoneded after being too pussy to score when given multiple opportunities.

I always said my mom and dad grew up in some of the greatest periods of human kind. Both ‘62 babies.
I was born 1959 Houston Texas Mexican American I joined the Navy 1976 I had a boom box on board the ship and would always play this beautiful song my friends from up north would ask me where is that music from I would reply from down south! Peace out to everyone 👍💪😎 Paul Garcia.
I lived in Massachusetts and they were well known and popular. Great music is great music
Listened to this when I went to Michigan State in the mid-seventies. Never got tired of it.

Or a crusty sock.
No...really?
Some women are a piece of work.
Or a tour in nam. Like the singer
I suffer in silence
❤
Don't do that...
But not alone
I suffer screaming.
Why? What's wrong?
They sure don’t make music 🎶 like this anymore!!!
ADC6828 sad but true there young lady u said it best
your so right. today's music has no soul, no depth, no feeling. Today's music is just fake. They're kids singing about things they've never felt or experienced.
There is a good reason for that .....
This what I was raised on and I look back to this when I need some good tunez
Y'all are just looking in the wrong places. There's significantly more music today than there has ever been before, so a lot of this style gets lost among the chaff.
I was going to take a road trip with my ex and things didn't work out, I went alone and this played on the radio, I sang my broken heart out, felt like a brand new man after that. Stoped on the side of the road and watched the sunset, I felt so free! God bless America!
Driving down the gravel roads back home with my best buddies in the world. All of us singing along as we're headed out to go fishing for the day. God, it was great times.
I will never tire of hearing this song. It will lift peoples spirits forever
This was my mom and dad's song. They'd both always turn up the radio when this song came on. My dad passed away in 2018, and whenever I hear this I feel like it's him saying hello. Always makes me cry.
😊😊
When I hear this song, an image pops into my head of a bunch of friends hanging out outside, kicking back and having some brews, just relaxing and enjoying life. I wish I could have been a young adult in the 70's.
From those of us who were there, you would be welcome. Rock on little brother
Just keeping your mind what he's saying I'm a black man 55 this is one of my best song I ever heard
The best
tgtrout so wholesome ❤️
Youth is wasted on the young!
One of the best rock songs ever written and recorded.
Reminds me of my dad all the time ❤🎤
Definitely
Cant you see, cant you see, what these drugs have done to me, I tried to chase a dragon,all across the nation, i could never catch up , Just when i thought i had it ,it was too much,Thank god someone woke me up, Cant you see, Cant you see, another life, God gave to me...
I needed this one today. One of those days. I could hear Dad picking his guitar and singing along in heaven ❤️
Can picture everything Toy’s singing here, a tale as old has time. They sure were storytellers their harmonies & musicianship are off the charts great. A favorite band.
The love of my life would sing this to me, and after we parted ways, it was hard to listen to. But now I find it so invigorating and healing, in a way. I love this band and I love this song, so much!
Yea what a great song indeed
Same here.
I crank up Seger so loud the pavement cracks even down on mainstreet. Seger represented us everyday workfolk in our youth and his music is here for us as we reach roadmarkers along the road if life. Thanks Mr. seger.
FOLKS THIS IS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT, THIS IS REAL MUSIC THAT TOUCHES THE SOUL!! 🙂👍
amen to that!
AMEN ♥️
One of the best songs ever recorded. Great guitar, flute, singing, harmonies, lyrics- love it all!!
It's more than that love is a powerful thing
It's so powerful that a woman have so much power over a man. We can't live without them unless u gay . I love a woman.
I've loved this song since forever.
Another great song from the quality music era. 🙂🎸🦉
I saw Marshall Tucker a couple of times in concert. They just don't make music this good anymore. Them Southern boys knew their shit. Yehaw!!!! ☮️
Woohoo doggy!
Yes they sure did
I liked this song before but after I lost both my parents, I started to love this, makes me think of em all the time, can't you see???
Van Morrison, Lord if ever need it some one i need you. This song makes me think about your comment..love you all
❤
Strange, the older I get, I find myself listening the music of my Youth … was in High School when this was popular … Still love this music. Thank You for keeping MUSIC alive!
Timeless song. And an actual band.
But you can never truly understand what he saying until you been thought it thanks God that you never been there
Loved this song from when my boyfriend broke up with me. Devastated isn’t the word. He dated the girl he always wanted to date! This song was my comfort! We were married 44 years & God took him! Miss you mike more than anyone will never know!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me too darling..sang this song for month straight and nothing else all because of what that mean ole boy had done to me
No one else does justice to this love ballad like Marshall Tucker Band!!!
OH MY LORD!!! I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!! HAVE FOR QUITE AWHILE! HOWEVER, I AM IN LUST WITH LEAD SINGER!!!! THOSE DIMPLES, THAT SMILE. FILLS OUT THOSE JEANS EXTREMELY NICE. AND HIS VOICE.....I COULD LISTEN TO HIS VOICE EVEN IF HE SANG HAPPY BDAY, OR JUST SAID THE SKY IS BLUE. I AM ONLY 68...A RECONSTITUTED TEENAGER, AND NOT BAD FOR AN OLD BROAD, I'VE BEEN TOLD. OH MY LORD!!! I'M NOT DEAD YET!!! HEEHEE HAVE A BLESSED YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!
.
Bless You Dear !! Music keeps you young forever !!
this was the frist song me and my dad would listen to when he would wake me up for school. ill never forget those mornings
I am one of those parents . Loved this band back then and still do. Peace out.🍄🍄🍄
This hits so differently at 50, then it did at 15. But it's still one of my favorites.
It hits differently at 72. How did time go by so fast?
One of the greatest train songs ever!
+Mahipal Virdy Yes, and THE best train song ever would have be Arlo Guthrie's City of New Orleans!!
#1
+Patrick Wagz I love Arlo Guthrie!
"Good morning, America, how are you?
Say, don't you know me? I'm your native son
I'm the train they call the City Of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done"
that was written by Steve Goodman...Arlo covered it.
Mahipal Virdy this really isn't a train song. It's about trying to escape being hurt by the woman that you love. The train mentioned was a metaphor.
how do you descibe a song that hits your soul for the best menories in your life driving with the top down 1972 in a ford mustang with this song blasting friends in the backseat smokeing a joint on a hot summer day with no where to go but drive the good old days tears are streaming
"tears are streaming" Oh yes, they are. xD
betty boo yep the blacks were in there place
My 15 year old dog died today and reading your post made me cry. God love you!

Had a Ford gran torino like in the movie but it was red not green. Had a 8 track tape player mounted on the tunnel with speakers in the back
The look on Mama Cass face, she was blown away.
Janice knew she nailed it!
Good times and music
Memories.. I saw them all in concert way back in the 70's. Tucker. Skynard, 38 special, Johnny Edgar Winter, Bob Seger's very first show. Queen, Thin Lizzy, Frampton Comes Alive tour, Gary Wright, Jimmy Buffet before anyone knew much about him... Yes. ELO, KISS 6 times, Led, Cheap Trick, Aerosmith, Montrose. Now my dementia is kicking in but there was many many more. That Blotter if you know what that was...I lived through it. What a great time. I had. Now I'm old but still willing!!!
So far away from me
Ronald Johnson You salty ole Bastard
Segers first concerts were in the 60s as the Bob Seger System
All great bands.
driving to St. Louis while my grandma was in Barnes Hospital on her death bed and this song played as I passed the arch... she pulled out of it and survived 4 more years... but I won't forget my best friend consoling me at the winery and she ended up dying sooner of cancer..... what a fucked up world... I love them both and wish they were both still here
I saw this band so many times back in the 1970's from a opening act for 2 other bands to a headliner with an arena full of Southern Rock Fans. They were a tight, fresh band and an unique sound. RIP Toy Caldwell.
+1stSaintsFan Me too. Had the pleasure of being back stage during an outdoor concert. It poured rain just before they took to the stage. While waiting we all had a huge tug of war over a huge mud puddle. My pictures of this are funny as hell. Loved this concert the best of all that I attended that year.
+Gracie Vanover would you mind sending me some of them i'd like to see that
+1stSaintsFan I'm 30. Roughly 20 years too late to experience many great songs when the world, and the greatest country (USA, melting pot of the world) were finding what limits...and ultimately couldn't be found in music. The time when electronic was forming, and almost every other existing genre was at its peak. not only that without this foundation, many newer genres wouldn't have existed. If only I could have seen the 60, and 70s. Every decade has its highs and lows but damn America was on fire musically. Must have been the acid.
Trust me we were on fire back in the 70's. Didn't have the headaches that so many of today's kids have now. The music just kept coming stronger with so many great musicians
Jon T And around the college towns at least in the South, we had great college radio stations, clubs and musicians. We got great imported Hashish. Black Afghani & Lebanese Blonde were everywhere in my circles, plus the pharma was plentiful and potent along with our La. Magic Mushrooms. lol
The first timeI heard this song was in 1976; an old friend in high school strolled through my house singing it. Such a great song.
I miss the good old days

Awsome song that I’ve had on playlist wayyyyy before playlist was popular 😂 incredible song that brings back teenage years. Still huge fan of mtb.
I’m 19 years old in 2019 and I would rather listen to this music that has heart and soul, I love the time and energy the artist put into the instrumentals of these songs. The music pulls you in and the words take you away.
I grew up listening to 70’s rock . I’m so thankful to have listened to this and have grown up in the 70’s n 80’s.
MEE TOO!!!!
driving down the freeway listening to this .... best feeling ever
and tossing the cell phone out the window lol
Lost my dad at 17 had to learn how to be a man on my own and raise a child by myself, proud to say my girl just graduated with honors from university, yay me
