[00:12] My child arrived just the other day;
[00:15] came to the world in the usually way
[00:18] but there were planes to catch and bills to pay.
[00:22] He learned to walk while I was away.
[00:24] He was talking before I knew it.
[00:26] And as he grew he said'
[00:28] "I'm gonna be like you' Dad.
[00:31] You know I'm gonna be like you."
[00:35] And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon'
[00:39] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
[00:42] "When you coming home?"
[00:43] "Son' I don't know when.
[00:45] We'll get together then.
[00:48] You know we'll have a good time then."
[00:58] Well' my son turned ten just the other day.
[01:01] He said' "Thanks for the ball' Dad. Come on' let's play.
[01:04] Could you teach me to throw?" I said' "Not today.
[01:08] I got a lot to do." He said' "That's okay."
[01:11] And he walked away and he smiled he said'
[01:14] "You know'
[01:15] I'm gonna be like him' yeah.
[01:17] You know I'm gonna be like him."
[01:22] And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon'
[01:25] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
[01:28] "When you coming home?"
[01:30] "Son' I don't know when.
[01:32] We'll get together then.
[01:34] You know we'll have a good time then."
[01:46] Well' he came from college just the other day'
[01:49] So much like a man I just had to say'
[01:53] "I'm proud of you. Could you sit for a while?"
[01:56] He shook his head and he said with a smile'
[01:59] "What I'd really like' Dad' is to borrow the car keys.
[02:02] See you later. Can I have them please?"
[02:07] And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon'
[02:10] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
[02:13] "When you coming home?"
[02:15] "Son' I don't know when.
[02:17] We'll get together then.
[02:19] You know we'll have a good time then."
[02:38] I've long since retired' my son's moved away.
[02:41] I called him up just the other day.
[02:46] "I'd like to see you' if you don't mind."
[02:49] He said' "I'd love to' Dad' if I could find the time.
[02:49] He said' "I'd love to' Dad' if I could find the time.
[02:53] You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu'
[02:57] But it's sure nice talking to you' Dad.
[03:00] It's been sure nice talking to you."
[03:05] And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me'
[03:08] He'd grown up just like me.
[03:11] My boy was just like me.
[03:15] (Yeah' yeah' yeah)
[03:16] And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon'
[03:19] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
[03:22] "When you coming home?"
[03:23] "Son' I don't know when.
[03:26] We'll get together then.
[03:29] You know we'll have a good time then."
[03:33] And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon'
[03:36] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
[03:39] "When you coming home?"
[03:41] "Son' I don't know when.
[03:43] We'll get together then.
[03:45] You know we'll have a good time then."
