Cats in the Cradle Lyrics Artist(Band):Cat Stevens
 Complimentary "Cats in the Cradle" Ringtone  Cats in the Cradle by Harry Chapin 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 was talking before 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 cats in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon When you comin home, dad, I don’t know when, But we'll get together then, Son, 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 lets play can you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today, I got a lot to do" He said "Thats okay" And then he walked away but his smile never dimmed And said "I’m gonna be like him, yeah You know I’m going to be like him" And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man on the moon When you comin home, dad, I dont know when, But we'll get together then, Son, 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 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 cats in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man on the moon When you comin home, Son, I dont know when, But we'll get together 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 jobs 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 cats in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man on the moon When you comin home, Son, I dont know when, But we'll get together then, Dad We're gonna have a good time then.
