My child arrived just the other day
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
He was talking for a minute and as he grew
He said I'm gonna be like you Dad
You know I'm gonna be like you

*
And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you coming home?Son,I don't know when
We'll got together then
You know we'll have a goodtime then

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 to throw?
I said not today I got a lot to do
He said that's okay,yeah
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

Repeat*

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'm feeling like Dad is to borrow the car keys
See you later,can I have them please?

Repeat*

I'm 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 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 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

Repeat*

Repeat*
