[00:00:00] Cat's In The Cradle (摇篮里的猫) - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)

[00:00:12] My child arrived just the other day;

[00:00:15] He came to the world in the usual day,

[00:00:18] But there were planes to catch and bills to pay,

[00:00:21] He learned to walk while I was away.

[00:00:24] And he was talking before I knew it,

[00:00:26] And as he grew he'd say:

[00:00:27] "I'm going to be like you, dad,

[00:00:31] You know I'm going to be like you."

[00:00:35] And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,

[00:00:38] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.

[00:00:41] "When you coming home, dad?"

[00:00:43] "I don't know when,

[00:00:45] But we'll get together then,

[00:00:48] You know we'll have a good time then."

[00:00:59] My son turned ten just the other day.

[00:01:02] He said, "Thanks for the ball, dad, come on

[00:01:04] Let's play.

[00:01:05] Can you teach me to throw?"

[00:01:06] I today ,I've said, "Not got a lot to do."

[00:01:09] He said, "That's OK."

[00:01:11] And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed;

[00:01:14] He said I'm going to be like him,yeah.

[00:01:17] You know I'm going to be like him.

[00:01:22] And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,

[00:01:25] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.

[00:01:28] "When you coming home, dad?"

[00:01:29] "I don't know when,

[00:01:31] But we'll get together then,

[00:01:34] You know we'll have a good time then."

[00:01:46] Well, he came from college just the other day,

[00:01:49] So much like a man, I just had to say,

[00:01:52] "Son,I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?"

[00:01:55] He shook his head and said with a smile,

[00:01:58] "What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys.

[00:02:02] See you later, can I have them please?"

[00:02:06] And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,

[00:02:09] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.

[00:02:12] "When you coming home, son?"

[00:02:14] "I don't know when,

[00:02:15] But we'll get together then,

[00:02:18] You know we'll have a good time then."

[00:02:37] I've long since retired, my son's moved away

[00:02:40] I called him up just the other day.

[00:02:44] I said,"I'd like to see you if you don't mind."

[00:02:47] He said,"I'd love to,Dad,if I can fine the time.

[00:02:52] You see,

[00:02:52] My new job's a worry and the kids have the flu,

[00:02:55] But it's sure nice talking to you,dad.

[00:02:58] It's sure been nice talking to you."

[00:03:03] And as I hung up the phone,it occurred to me,

[00:03:06] He'd grown up just like me

[00:03:09] My boy was just like me.

[00:03:13] And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon,

[00:03:17] Little boy blue and the man in the moon.

[00:03:20] "When you coming home,son?"

[00:03:21] "I don't know when,

[00:03:23] But we'll get together then,

[00:03:26] You know we'll have a good time then."
