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 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."
CHORUS: And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon When are you coming home Daddy, don't know when? We'll get together then You know you'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've g0t a lot to do." He said, "That's okay." And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed and said, "I'm gonna be like him; you know I'm gonna be like him."
CHORUS; 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, you don't know when 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." 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?"
CHORUS: 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, don't know when. We'll get together then. You know you'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, Daddy, if I can find the time." My new job's a hassle And the kids have the flu. It's sure nice talking to you, Dad, it's sure nice talking 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
CHORUS: 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. We'll get together then, dad, We're gonna have a good time them.
