Cat's In The Cradle (摇篮里的猫) - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)

A child arrived the other day

He came to the world in the usual way

But there were planes to catch bills to pay

He learned to walk while I was away

And he was talking fore I knew it

And as he grew he'd say

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 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 come on let's play

Can you teach me to throw

Said not today got a lot to do

He said that's okay

He walked away and his smile never dimmed

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 in the moon

When you coming home dad

I don't know when

We'll get together then

You know we'll have a good time then

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 then he 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 cradle 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 have a good then

You know we'll have a good time then

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 have the flu

But it's sure nice talking to you dad

It's been sure nice talking to you

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me

He'd grown up be like me

Boy was just like me

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

Little boy blue and the man in the moon

When you coming home dad I don't know when

We'll get together then

You know we'll have a good time then
