<pre><font size='+2'>CAT S IN THE CRADLE lyrics RICKY SKAGGS</font><br>(Words and music by Harry Chapin)<br />
<br />
A child arrived the other day,<br />
He came to the world in the usual way.<br />
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay,<br />
He learned to walk while I was away,<br />
And he was talking `fore I knew it.<br />
And as he grew he`d say, I`m gonna be like you dad,<br />
You know I`m gonna be like you.<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
And the cat`s in the cradle and the silver spoon.<br />
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.<br />
When you coming home dad? I don`t know when,<br />
But we`ll get together then,<br />
You know we`ll have a good time then.<br />
<br />
My son turned ten just the other day,<br />
He said, Thanks for the ball come on let`s play,<br />
Can you teach me to throw? I said, Not today,<br />
I got a lot to do.He said, That`s okay.<br />
He walked away but his smile never dimmed,<br />
He said, I`m gonna be like him,<br />
Yeah, you know I`m gonna be like him.<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
And the cat`s in the cradle and the silver spoon.<br />
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.<br />
When you coming home dad? I don`t know when,<br />
But we`ll get together then,<br />
You know we`ll have a good time then.<br />
<br />
Well, he came from college just the other day,<br />
So much like a man I just had to say,<br />
Son I`m proud of you, can you sit for a while.<br />
He shook his head and then he said with a smile,<br />
What I`d really like dad is to borrow the car keys,<br />
See you later can I have them please.<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
And the cat`s in the cradle and the silver spoon.<br />
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.<br />
When you coming home son? I don`t know when,<br />
But we`ll have a good time then dad,<br />
You know we`ll have a good time then.<br />
<br />
I`ve long since retired my son`s moved away.<br />
I called him up just the other day,<br />
I said, I`d like to see you if you don`t mind.<br />
He said, I`d love to dad if I could find the time,<br />
You see my new job`s a hassle and the kids have the flu,<br />
But it`s sure nice talking to you dad,<br />
It`s been sure nice talking to you.<br />
<br />
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,<br />
He`d grown up just like me, my boy was just like me.<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
And the cat`s in the cradle and the silver spoon.<br />
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.<br />
When you coming home son? I don`t know when,<br />
But we`ll have a good time then dad,<br />
You know we`ll have a good time then....<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/cat_s_in_the_cradle_lyrics-ricky_skaggs.html" target='_blank'>CAT S IN THE CRADLE lyrics RICKY SKAGGS</a></pre>

(Words and music by Harry Chapin)

A child arrived 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.

Chorus:
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? I said, Not today,
I got a lot to do.He said, That`s okay.
He walked away but his smile never dimmed,
He said, I`m gonna be like him,
Yeah, you know I`m gonna be like him.

Chorus:
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.

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 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.

Chorus:
And the cat`s in the cradle 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 have a good time 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 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 just like me, my boy was just like me.

Chorus:
And the cat`s in the cradle 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 have a good time then dad,
You know we`ll have a good time then....
