(热歌公司) [00:12.49]My child arrived just the other day; [00:14.83] [00:15.54]He came to the world in the usual day, [00:18.39]But there were planes to catch and bills to pay, [00:21.09] [00:21.74]He learned to walk while I was away. [00:24.04] [00:24.59]And he was talking before I knew it, [00:26.53]And as he grew he'd say: [00:27.92]"I'm going to be like you, dad, [00:31.13]You know I'm going to be like you." [00:33.21] [00:35.49]And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon, [00:38.26] [00:38.80]Little boy blue and the man in the moon. [00:41.95]"When you coming home, dad?" [00:43.53]"I don't know when, [00:45.04]But we'll get together then, [00:46.43] [00:48.03]You know we'll have a good time then." [00:50.11] [00:59.48]My son turned ten just the other day. [01:02.14]He said, "Thanks for the ball, dad, come on [01:04.87]Let's play. [01:05.24]Can you teach me to throw?" [01:06.42]I today ,I've said, "Not got a lot to do." [01:09.84]He said, "That's OK." [01:11.22] [01:11.73]And he walked away, but his smile never dimmed; [01:14.73]He said I'm going to be like him,yeah. [01:17.84]You know I'm going to be like him. [01:20.23] [01:22.39]And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon, [01:24.81] [01:25.51]Little boy blue and the man in the moon. [01:28.12] [01:28.85]"When you coming home, dad?" [01:29.98]"I don't know when, [01:31.93]But we'll get together then, [01:33.20] [01:34.99]You know we'll have a good time then." [01:37.37] [01:46.16]Well, he came from college just the other day, [01:48.44] [01:49.06]So much like a man, I just had to say, [01:52.35]"Son,I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?" [01:55.36]He shook his head and said with a smile, [01:57.76] [01:58.36]"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys. [02:01.59] [02:02.18]See you later, can I have them please?" [02:04.66] [02:06.25]And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon, [02:08.76] [02:09.74]Little boy blue and the man in the moon. [02:12.06] [02:12.72]"When you coming home, son?" [02:14.00]"I don't know when, [02:15.58]But we'll get together then, [02:17.46] [02:18.93]You know we'll have a good time then." [02:21.15] [02:37.13]I've long since retired, my son's moved away [02:39.95] [02:40.59]I called him up just the other day. [02:42.71] [02:44.46]I said,"I'd like to see you if you don't mind." [02:47.73]He said,"I'd love to,Dad,if I can fine the time. [02:50.78] [02:52.26]You see, [02:52.59]My new job's a worry and the kids have the flu, [02:55.58]But it's sure nice talking to you,dad. [02:58.42]It's sure been nice talking to you." [03:00.55] [03:03.01]And as I hung up the phone,it occurred to me, [03:05.76] [03:06.68]He'd grown up just like me [03:08.49] [03:09.57]My boy was just like me. [03:11.73] [03:13.46]And the cat's in the crader and the silver spoon, [03:16.74] [03:17.41]Little boy blue and the man in the moon. [03:19.82] [03:20.43]"When you coming home,son?" [03:21.71]"I don't know when, [03:22.84] [03:23.43]But we'll get together then, [03:25.22] [03:26.73]You know we'll have a good time then."
