Karaoke Track: Cat's In The Cradle by Harry Chapin (Cool Tracks)

My child arrived just the
other day

He came to the world in the
usual way

He was talkin&#39; &#39;fore I knew it
And as he grew he said
I&#39;m gonna be like you, Dad
You know I&#39;m gonna be
like you

And the cat&#39;s in the cradle
And the silver spoon

Little Boy Blue and the
Man on the Moon

When ya&#39; coming home,
Dad, I don&#39;t know when
We&#39;ll get together then

You know we&#39;ll have
a good time then

Well, my son turned ten
just the other day

He said, thanks for the
ball Dad come on, let&#39;s play

And the cat&#39;s in the cradle
And the silver spoon

Little Boy Blue
and the Man on the Moon

Well, he came from college
just the other day

So much like a man,
I just had to say

When ya&#39; coming home,
son, I don&#39;t know when
We&#39;ll get together then

You know we&#39;ll have
a good time then

I&#39;ve long since retired
My son&#39;s moved away

I called him up just
the other day

Ya&#39; see, my new job&#39;s a
hassle
And the kid&#39;s got the flu

But it&#39;s sure nice talking
to you, dad

It&#39;s been sure nice talking
to you

And as I hung up the phone
It occurred to me

He&#39;d grown up just like me
Yeah, my boy, was just
like me

And the cat&#39;s in the cradle
And the silver spoon

We&#39;ll get together then
You know we&#39;ll have
a good time then
