Cat's In The Cradle (摇篮里的猫) - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]

My child arrived just the other day;[00:00:12]

He came to the world in the usual day,[00:00:15]

But there were planes to catch and bills to pay,[00:00:18]

He learned to walk while I was away.[00:00:21]

And he was talking before I knew it,[00:00:24]

And as he grew he'd say:[00:00:26]

"I'm going to be like you, dad,[00:00:27]

You know I'm going to be like you."[00:00:31]

And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,[00:00:35]

Little boy blue and the man in the moon.[00:00:38]

"When you coming home, dad?"[00:00:41]

"I don't know when,[00:00:43]

But we'll get together then,[00:00:45]

You know we'll have a good time then."[00:00:48]

My son turned ten just the other day.[00:00:59]

He said, "Thanks for the ball, dad, come on[00:01:02]

Let's play.[00:01:04]

Can you teach me to throw?"[00:01:05]

I today ,I've said, "Not got a lot to do."[00:01:06]

He said, "That's OK."[00:01:09]

And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed;[00:01:11]

He said I'm going to be like him,yeah.[00:01:14]

You know I'm going to be like him.[00:01:17]

And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,[00:01:22]

Little boy blue and the man in the moon.[00:01:25]

"When you coming home, dad?"[00:01:28]

"I don't know when,[00:01:29]

But we'll get together then,[00:01:31]

You know we'll have a good time then."[00:01:34]

Well, he came from college just the other day,[00:01:46]

So much like a man, I just had to say,[00:01:49]

"Son,I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?"[00:01:52]

He shook his head and said with a smile,[00:01:55]

"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys.[00:01:58]

See you later, can I have them please?"[00:02:02]

And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,[00:02:06]

Little boy blue and the man in the moon.[00:02:09]

"When you coming home, son?"[00:02:12]

"I don't know when,[00:02:14]

But we'll get together then,[00:02:15]

You know we'll have a good time then."[00:02:18]

I've long since retired, my son's moved away[00:02:37]

I called him up just the other day.[00:02:40]

I said,"I'd like to see you if you don't mind."[00:02:44]

He said,"I'd love to,Dad,if I can fine the time.[00:02:47]

You see,[00:02:52]

My new job's a worry and the kids have the flu,[00:02:52]

But it's sure nice talking to you,dad.[00:02:55]

It's sure been nice talking to you."[00:02:58]

And as I hung up the phone,it occurred to me,[00:03:03]

He'd grown up just like me[00:03:06]

My boy was just like me.[00:03:09]

And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,[00:03:13]

Little boy blue and the man in the moon.[00:03:17]

"When you coming home,son?"[00:03:20]

"I don't know when,[00:03:21]

But we'll get together then,[00:03:23]

You know we'll have a good time then."[00:03:26]
