Cats In The Cradle (LP版)歌词完整版
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
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
And the cat's in the cradle
and the silver spoon
Little boy blue
and the man on the moon
When you comin' home dad
I don't know when
We'll get together then
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 let's play
Can you teach me to throw
I said not today
I got a lot to do
he said that's okay
And he walked away
but his smile never dimmed it said
I'm gonna be like him yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him
And the cat's in the cradle
and the silver spoon
Little boy blue
and the man on the moon
When you comin' home dad
I don't know when
but 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
can we sit for a while
He shook his head
and said with a smile
What I'd really like dad
is to borrow the car keys
See ya later
can I have them please
And the cat's in the cradle
and the silver spoon
Little boy blue
and the man on the moon
When you comin' home
son I don't 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 job's a hassle
and the kids got the flu
But it's been sure
nice talkin' to you yeah
It's been sure nice talking to you
And as I hung up the phone
it occured to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me
And the cat's in the cradle
and the silver spoon
Little boy blue
and the man on the moon
When you comin' home
son I don't know when
But we'll get together then dad
we're gonna have a good time then
