Cat's In The Cradle
作詞：Harry F. Chapin, Sandra Campbell Chapin
A child arrived 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 talking 'fore I knew it
And as he grew he'd say, 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 in the moon
When you coming 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 come on let's play'
C'an you teach me to throw?' I said, 'Not today
'I got a lot to do', he said, 'That's okay'
He walked away but his smile never dimmed
He 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 in the moon
When you coming home dad? I don't know when
But we'll get together then
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
'Son I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?'
He shook his head and then he said with a smile
'What I'd really like dad is to borrow the car keys
'See you later, can I have them please?'
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
When you coming home son? I don't know when
But we'll have a good time then dad
You know we'll have a good time then
I've long since retired my son's 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'
'You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have 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, my boy was just like me
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
When you coming home son? I don't know when
But we'll have a good time then dad
You know, we'll have a good time then
