歌曲名 Cat's in the Cradle

歌手名 Harry Chapin

My child arrived just the other day

He came to the world in the day usual

But there were planes to catch and bills to pay

He learned to walk while I was away

And he was talking before I knew it

And as he grew he'd say

I'm going to be like you Dad

You know I'm going to be like you

And the cats in the crader and the silver spoon

Little boy blue and the man in the moon

When you coming home Dad

I don't know when

But 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 today I've said not got a lot to do

He said that;s Ok

And he walked away but his smile never dimmed

He said I'm going to be like him yeah

You know I'm going to be like him

And the cats in the crader and the silver spoon

Little boy blue and the man in the moon

When you coming 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 you 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 you later can I have them please

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

Little boy blue and the man in the moon

When you coming home son

I don't know when

But we'll get together then

You know we'll have a good time then

I've long since retired my sons 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 can fine the time

You see my new job's a worry and the kids have the flu

But it's sure nice talking to you Dad

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me

It's sure been nice talking to you

He'd grown up just like me

My boy was just like me

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

Little boy blue and the man in the moon

When you coming home son

I don't know when

But we'll get together then

You know we'll have a good time then
