[00:00.81] | Cat's in the cradle--Celtic Thunder |
[00:12.58] | My child arrived just the other day |
[00:15.32] | came into the world in the usual day |
[00:18.34] | But there were planes to catch and bills to pay |
[00:21.83] | He learned to walk while I was away |
[00:25.09] | he was talking before I knew it |
[00:26.85] | And as he grew he'd say |
[00:28.89] | "I'm gonna to be like you,dad,"“ |
[00:31.59] | You know I'm gonna to be like you."“ |
[00:36.36] | And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon |
[00:39.64] | Little boy blue and the man in the moon |
[00:42.82] | "When you coming home,dad?"“ |
[00:44.31] | "I don't know when,“ |
[00:46.04] | we'll get together then,son“ |
[00:49.12] | You know we'll have a good time then."“ |
[01:01.30] | My son turned ten just the other day |
[01:04.14] | He said,"Thanks for the ball,dad,come on,let's play |
[01:07.62] | teach me to throw?"“ |
[01:08.94] | I said,"Not today,I've got a lot to do." |
[01:11.54] | |
[01:13.93] | well he walked away,but a smile never dimmed |
[01:17.26] | He said I'm gonna to be like him,yeah |
[01:20.31] | You know I'm gonna to be like him |
[01:25.09] | And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon |
[01:28.28] | Little boy blue and the man in the moon |
[01:31.63] | "When you coming home,dad?"“ |
[01:33.26] | "I don't know when,“ |
[01:34.88] | we'll get together then,son“ |
[01:37.86] | You know we'll have a good time then."“ |
[01:49.88] | Well,he came from college just the other day |
[01:52.90] | So much like a man,I just had to say, |
[01:56.06] | "Son,I'm proud of you,can you sit for a while?"“ |
[02:00.10] | He shook his head and said with a smile |
[02:02.63] | "What I'd really like,Dad,is to borrow the car keys.“ |
[02:06.17] | See you later,can I have them please?"“ |
[02:10.87] | And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon |
[02:14.22] | Little boy blue and the man in the moon |
[02:17.13] | "When you coming home,son?"“ |
[02:19.58] | "I don't know when,“ |
[02:20.65] | we'll get together then,“ |
[02:23.53] | You know we'll have a good time then."“ |
[02:42.79] | I've long since retired,my son's moved away |
[02:46.54] | I called him up just the other day |
[02:50.64] | I said,"I'd like to see you if you don't mind." |
[02:53.63] | He said,"I'd love to,Dad,if I can fine the time. |
[02:58.64] | You see,my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu,“ |
[03:02.00] | it was sure nice talking to you,dad“ |
[03:05.08] | its been sure nice talking to you."“ |
[03:09.94] | And as I hung up the phone,it occurred to me, |

[03:16.35] | My boy was just like me. |
[03:21.20] | And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon |
[03:24.40] | Little boy blue and the man in the moon |
[03:27.64] | "When you coming home,son?"“ |
