Can You See Me Alright
by Hoskins Family

Album: It's Over - Let Eternity Begin

The day Tommy Jones was born
His mom and daddy cried
His mama tried to shelter him for years
Tommy Jones was frail and blind
The neighborhood boys
All stood there in shock
As he flew down the hill
With his training wheels off
Yelling, "Daddy, can you see me alright?"

Can you see me alright?
Am I doing okay?
Should I turn left or right?
Daddy, tell me which way I should go
I'm not alone, just keep me in sight
Daddy, can you see me alright?

The day Tommy turned sixteen
He never thought he'd ever drive
When his dad got home
He got out of his truck
And said, "Tommy, climb inside
Put your foot on the gas, son
And your hands on the wheel"
He kicked up some dust
As he drove out through the field
Yelling, "Daddy, can you see me alright?"

Can you see me alright?
Am I doing okay?
Should I turn left or right?
Daddy, tell me which way I should go
I'm not alone, just keep me in sight
Daddy, can you see me alright?

From the day he was born
Both his folks knew
He'd be lucky to see eighteen
As he slipped from this world
He said, "Dad, hold my hand
And promise you'll stay here by me"

Can you see me alright?
Dad, I'm doing okay?
There's a bright shining light
Showing me the way I should go
Dad, I'm not alone, I'm doing just fine
Daddy, can you see me alright?
Daddy, can you see me alright?
Tell me, daddy, can you see me alright?
