[00:12.140] My child arrived just the other day
[00:15.680] came to the world in the usual way
[00:18.740] But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay
[00:22.150] He learned to walk while I was away,
[00:25.120] and he was talkin' 'fore I knew it, and as he grew,
[00:27.240] he said:I'm gonna be like you, dad,
[00:31.140] You know I'm gonna be like you
[00:36.050] And the cat's in the cradle, and the silver spoon
[00:39.130] Little boy blue and the man on the moon
[00:42.140] When you coming home, dad, I don't know when
[00:46.260] But we'll get together then,
[00:49.020] You know we'll have a good time then.
[00:59.030] My son turned ten just the other day, he said
[01:02.230] Thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play
[01:05.280] teach me to throw, I said not today,
[01:08.180] I got a lot to do, he said that's okay
[01:12.050] And he walked away but his smile never dimmed, he said
[01:15.300] I'm gonna be like him, yeah
[01:18.040] You know I'm gonna be like him.
[01:22.800] And the cat's in the cradle, and the silver spoon
[01:25.810] Little boy blue and the man on the moon
[01:29.060] When you coming home, dad, I don't know when
[01:32.570] But we'll get together then,
[01:35.570] You know we'll have a good time then.
[01:47.340] Well, he came from college just the other day
[01:50.200] So much like a man, I just had to say
[01:53.710] Son I'm proud of you, can ya sit for a while?
[01:56.970] He shook his head and said with a smile
[02:00.230] What I'd really like, dad, is borrow the car keys
[02:03.220] See ya later, can I have them please?
[02:07.730] And the cat's in the cradle, and the silver spoon
[02:10.980] Little boy blue and the man on the moon
[02:14.230] When you coming home, son, I don't know when
[02:17.480] But we'll get together then,dad
[02:20.480] You know we'll have a good time then.
[02:39.510] I've long since retired, my sons moved away
[02:42.350] I called him up just the other day.
[02:47.360] I said, I'd like to see you, if you don't mind, he said
[02:50.400] I'd love to, dad, if I can find the time.
[02:55.150] You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu
[02:58.140] But it's sure nice talking to you, dad
[03:01.150] It's been sure nice talking to you.
[03:05.900] And as I hung up the phone it occured to me,
[03:09.150] He'd grown up just like me,
[03:12.670] My boy was just like me.
[03:17.430] And the cat's in the cradle, and the silver spoon
[03:20.190] Little boy blue and the man on the moon
[03:23.680] When you coming home, son, I don't know when
[03:26.940] But we'll get together then
[03:29.940] You know we'll have a good time then.
[03:34.450] And the cat's in the cradle, and the silver spoon
[03:37.710] Little boy blue and the man on the moon
[03:40.960] When you coming home, son, I don't know when
[03:44.220] But we'll get together then
