Lyrics Cat's in the Cradle

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 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 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 walked away but his smile never dimmed, it 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 on 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 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 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 could 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

As I hung up the phone it occurred 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 on 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
