Lyrics Cat's in the Cradle

My 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's talkin' 'fore I knew it

And as he grew he said

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 on the Moon

When ya' coming home, son

I don't know when we'll get together then

You know we'll have a good time then

Well my son turned ten just the other day

He said thanks for the ball, dad

Come on, let's play

Could you teach me to throw?

I said uh, not today

I got a lot to do

He said that's OK

And he, he walked away and he smiled and he said

Ya' know

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 on the Moon

When ya' coming home, son

I don't know when

We'll get together then yeah

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

I'm proud of you

Could 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 ya' later

Can I have them please?

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon

Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon

When ya' coming home, son

I don't know when

We'll get together then yeah

You know we'll have a good time then

Yeah

Woah aw

I've long since retired

My son's moved away

I called him up just the other day

I'd like to see you if you don't mind

He said I'd love to, dad if I could find the time

Ya' see my new job's a hassle and the kid's with the flu

But it's sure nice talking to you, dad

It's been sure nice talking to you

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me

He'd grown up just like me yeah

My boy was just like me yeah yeah

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon

Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon

When ya' coming home, son

I don't know when

We'll get together then yeah

You know we'll have a good time then

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon

Little Boy Blue and the Man on the Moon

When ya' coming home, son

I don't know when

We'll get together then yeah

You know we'll have a good time then
