Cat's In The Cradle
My child arrived just the other day;
- My child arrived just the other day;
- Came to the world in the usually way
- But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
- He learned to walk while I was away
- He was talking before I knew it
- And as he grew he said
- "I'm gonna be like you Dad
- You know I'm gonna be like you "
- And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
- Little boy blue and the man in the moon
- "When you coming home "
- "Son I don't know when
- We'll get together then
- You know we'll have a good time then "
- Well my son turned ten just the other day
- He said "Thanks for the ball Dad Come on let's play
- Could you teach me to throw " I said "Not today
- I got a lot to do " He said "That's okay "
- And he walked away and he smiled he said
- "You know
- I'm gonna be like him yeah
- You know I'm gonna be like him "
- And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
- Little boy blue and the man in the moon
- "When you coming home "
- "Son I don't know when
- We'll get together then
- You know we'll have a good time then "
- Well he came from college just the other day
- So much like a man I just had to say
- "I'm proud of you Could you sit for a while "
- He shook his head and he said with a smile
- "What I'd really like Dad is to borrow the car keys
- See you later Can I have them please "
- And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
- Little boy blue and the man in the moon
- "When you coming home "
- "Son I don't know when
- We'll get together then
- You know we'll have a good time then "
- I've long since retired my son's moved away
- I called him up just the other day
- "I'd like to see you if you don't mind "
- He said "I'd love to Dad if I could find the time
- You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu
- But it's sure nice talking to you Dad
- It's been sure nice talking to you "
- And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
- He'd grown up just like me
- My boy was just like me
- (Yeah yeah yeah)
- And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
- Little boy blue and the man in the moon
- "When you coming home "
- "Son I don't know when
- We'll get together then
- You know we'll have a good time then "
- And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
- Little boy blue and the man in the moon
- "When you coming home "
- "Son I don't know when
- We'll get together then
- You know we'll have a good time then "
