Cat's In The Cradle
[ The Definitive Collection ]
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 okay"
And he he walked away but his smile never dimmed
He 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
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 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 comin' home son I don't know when
But we'll get together then dad, you know we'll have a good time then
Now I've retired my son 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 can find the time
My new job's a hassle and the kids got the flu
But it's nice talkin' to you dad, it's sure nice talkin' to you"
And as I hung up the phone it occured 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 dad, you're gonna have a good time then
He came to the world in the usual way
