[00:00:00] Cat's In The Cradle [Live 1975 Version

[00:00:18] My child arrived just the other day

[00:00:21] He came to the world in the usual way

[00:00:24] But there were planes to catch and bills to pay

[00:00:28] He learned to walk while I was away

[00:00:30] And he was talkin fore I knew it

[00:00:32] And as he grew

[00:00:33] Hed say I'm gonna be like you yeh

[00:00:37] I know I'm gonna be like you

[00:00:42] And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon

[00:00:45] Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon

[00:00:49] When ya comin home Dad

[00:01:16] Not today I got a lot to do

[00:01:18] He said That's ok

[00:01:20] And then he walked away but a smile never came

[00:01:23] He said I'm gonna be like him yeh

[00:01:27] Ya know I'm gonna be like him

[00:01:31] And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon

[00:01:35] Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon

[00:01:38] When ya comin home Dad

[00:02:10] What I'd really like Dad is to borrow the car keys

[00:02:14] See ya later can I have them please

[00:02:19] And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon

[00:02:32] Ya know well have a good time then

[00:02:52] Well I've long since retired

[00:02:54] My sons moved away

[00:03:01] I said I'd like to see you if you don't mind

[00:03:04] He said I'd love to Dad if I can find the time

[00:03:33] And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon

[00:03:37] Little Boy Blue and The Man In The Moon
