Cat's In The Cradle [Live 1975 Version[00:00:00]
My child arrived just the other day [00:00:18]
He came to the world in the usual way [00:00:21]
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay [00:00:24]
He learned to walk while I was away [00:00:28]
And he was talkin fore I knew it[00:00:30]
And as he grew [00:00:32]
Hed say I'm gonna be like you yeh [00:00:33]
I know I'm gonna be like you [00:00:37]
And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon [00:00:42]
Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon [00:00:45]
When ya comin home Dad [00:00:49]
I don't know when well get together then son [00:00:50]
Ya know well have a good time then [00:00:55]
Well my son turned 10 just the other day [00:01:07]
He said Thanks for the ball Dad come lets play [00:01:10]
Can ya teach me to throw I said[00:01:14]
Not today I got a lot to do [00:01:16]
He said That's ok [00:01:18]
And then he walked away but a smile never came [00:01:20]
He said I'm gonna be like him yeh [00:01:23]
Ya know I'm gonna be like him [00:01:27]
And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon [00:01:31]
Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon [00:01:35]
When ya comin home Dad [00:01:38]
I don't know when well get together then son [00:01:40]
Ya know well have a good time then [00:01:45]
Well he came from college just the other day [00:01:57]
So much like a man I just had to say[00:02:00]
Son I'm proud of you can ya sit for a while [00:02:04]
He shook his head and he said with a smile[00:02:07]
What I'd really like Dad is to borrow the car keys [00:02:10]
See ya later can I have them please [00:02:14]
And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon [00:02:19]
Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon [00:02:22]
When ya comin home son [00:02:26]
I don't know when well get together then Dad [00:02:27]
Ya know well have a good time then [00:02:32]
Well I've long since retired [00:02:52]
My sons moved away [00:02:54]
I called him up just the other day [00:02:56]
I said I'd like to see you if you don't mind [00:03:01]
He said I'd love to Dad if I can find the time [00:03:04]
You see my new jobs a hassle[00:03:09]
And the kids have the flu [00:03:10]
But it's sure nice talking to you Dad [00:03:12]
It's been sure nice talking to you [00:03:16]
And as he hung up the phone it occurred to me [00:03:21]
Hed grown up just like me[00:03:25]
My boy was just like me [00:03:28]
And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon [00:03:33]
Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon [00:03:37]
When ya comin home son [00:03:40]
I don't know when [00:03:42]
Well get together then Dad [00:03:43]
Were gonna have a good time then[00:03:47]
