My Emi child arrived just the D other day,
Ami7 came to the world in the Emi usual way.
But there were planes to catch and G bills to pay,
Ami7 he learned to walk while I Emi was away.
He was D talkin' 'fore I D/C# knew it,
and Hmi7 as he grew Hm/A he said,
G "I'm gonna D/F# be like E you, Dad.
You G know I'm gonna D/F# be like E you"
R: And the Emi cat's in the cradle and the D silver spoon,
G little boy blue and the man A 'n the moon.
/verze 1,2/ Emi "When you comin' home?" "Son I D don't know when"
/verze 3/ Emi "When you comin' home, son?" I D don't know when"
G We'll get D/F# together then. E
G You know we'll have a D/F# good time E then."{eoc}
Well, my son turned ten just the other day.
He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on, let's play
Could you teach me throw?" I said, "Not today.
I got a lot to do." He said "That's okay."
And he walked away and he smiled and he said, "You know,
I'm gonna be like him, yeah. You know I'm gonna be like him."
/R : verze 1/
Well, he came from college just the other day,
so much like a man I just had to say,
"I'm proud of you. Could 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?"
/R : verze 2/
I've long since retired, my son's moved away.
I called him up just the other day
"I'd like to see you, if you don't mind."
He said, "I'd love you 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 talkin' to you, Dad.
It's been sure nice talkin' to you"
And as I hang up the phone it occured to me,
he'd grown up just like me.My boy was just like me.
/R : verze 3/
