Cats In The Cradle by Olimax


My child arrived just the other day

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

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."

 

 

Chorus

And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon

Little boy blue and the man 'n the moon.

"when you comin' home?"

"son i don't know when. we'll get together then.

You know we'll have a good time then."

Verse 2

Well my son turned ten just the other day.

He said "thanks for the ball dad. come on let's play.

Could you teach me to throw?"

I said "not today. i got a lot to do."

He said "that's okay." and he walked away and he smiled and he said

"you know i'm gonna be like him yeah.

You know i'm gonna be like him."

 

Chorus

 

Verse 3

Well he came from college just the other day

So much like a man i just had to say

"i'm proud of you. could 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 ?"

 

Chorus

 

Verse 4

I've long since retired my son's moved away.

I called him up just the other day.

"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 talkin' to you dad.

It's been sure nice talkin' 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.
