Cat's In The Cradle
In the style of
Lyrics
a child arrived
just the other day
he came to the world
in the usual way
but there were
planes to catch
and bills to pay
he learned to walk
while i was away
and he was talkin'
'fore i knew it
and as he grew
he'd say 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
comin' home dad
i don't know when
but we'll
get together then
you know we'll have
a good time then
my son turned ten
just the other day
he said thanks
for the ball dad
come on let's play
can you teach me
to throw
i said not today
i got a lot to do
he said that's o.k.
and he walked away
but his smile
never dimmed
and said 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
comin' home dad
i don't know when
but 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
son i'm proud of you
can you sit for awhile
he shook his head
and he said
with a smile
what i'd really like
dad is to borrow
the car keys
see ya 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
comin' home son
i don't know when
but 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 said
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
talkin' to you dad
it's been sure
nice talkin' 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
and the
cat's in the cradle
and the silver spoon
little boy blue
and the
man in the moon
when you
comin' home son
i don't know when
but we'll
get together then
yeah
we're gonna have
a good time then
