Ugly Kid Joe - Cats In The Cradle (en) Lyrics
by RentAnAdviser.com
My 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 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,
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 ok."
And he walked away, but his
smile, lemme tell you,
Said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah.
You know I'm gonna be like him."
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
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?"
"When you coming home, son?"
"I don't know when,
But we'll get together then, dad.
I've long since retired and
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 kid's got 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 just like me.
My boy was just like me.
