Cat's In The Cradle - The Hit Crew[00:00:00]
My child arrived just the other day[00:00:11]
He came to the world in the usual way[00:00:14]
But there were planes to catch[00:00:17]
And bills to pay[00:00:19]
He learned to walk while I was away[00:00:21]
And he was talking 'fore I knew it [00:00:23]
And as he grew[00:00:25]
He'd say "I'm gonna be like you Dad[00:00:26]
You know I'm gonna be like you"[00:00:30]
And the cat's in the cradle[00:00:34]
And the silver spoon[00:00:35]
Little boy blue and the man on the moon[00:00:37]
When you coming home Dad[00:00:40]
I don't know when [00:00:42]
But we'll get together then[00:00:43]
You know we'll have a good time then[00:00:46]
My son turned ten just the other day[00:00:58]
He said "Thanks for the ball Dad [00:01:01]
Come on let's play[00:01:03]
Can you teach me to throw" [00:01:04]
I said "Not today[00:01:05]
I got a lot to do" he said "That's ok[00:01:07]
And he walked away[00:01:10]
But his smile never dimmed[00:01:12]
And said "I'm gonna be like him yeah[00:01:13]
You know I'm gonna be like him"[00:01:17]
And the cat's in the cradle[00:01:21]
And the silver spoon[00:01:22]
Little boy blue and the man on the moon[00:01:24]
When you coming home Dad[00:01:28]
I don't know when [00:01:29]
But we'll get together then yeah[00:01:30]
We'll gonna have a good time then[00:01:33]
Well he came from college[00:01:45]
Just the other day[00:01:46]
So much like a man[00:01:48]
I just had to say[00:01:49]
"Son I'm proud of you [00:01:51]
Can you sit for a while"[00:01:52]
He shook his head and said with a smile[00:01:54]
"What I'd really like Dad [00:01:57]
Is to borrow the car keys[00:01:59]
See you later [00:02:01]
Can I have them please"[00:02:02]
And the cat's in the cradle[00:02:05]
And the silver spoon[00:02:06]
Little boy blue and the man on the moon[00:02:08]
When you coming home son[00:02:11]
I don't know when [00:02:13]
But we'll get together then yeah[00:02:14]
You know we'll have a good time then[00:02:17]
I've long since retired [00:02:36]
My son's moved away[00:02:37]
I called him up just the other day[00:02:39]
I said "I'd like to see you[00:02:43]
If you don't mind"[00:02:45]
He said "I'd love to Dad [00:02:46]
If I can find the time[00:02:48]
You see my new job's a hassle[00:02:51]
And kids have the flu[00:02:52]
But it's sure nice talking to you Dad[00:02:54]
It's been sure nice talking to you"[00:02:57]
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me[00:03:01]
He'd grown up just like me[00:03:05]
My boy was just like me[00:03:08]
And the cat's in the cradle[00:03:12]
And the silver spoon[00:03:14]
Little boy blue and the man in the moon[00:03:16]
When you coming home son[00:03:19]
I don't know when [00:03:20]
But we'll get together then yeah[00:03:22]
We're gonna have a good time then[00:03:25]
