The Michael Berry Show

A child arrived just the other day. He 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 and he was talking for I knew it and as he grew he'd say,

I'm gonna be like you, Dad. You know I'm gonna be like you dad you know I'm gonna be like you and the cats and the

cats and the cradle and the silver moon a little boy blue and the of the Moels, when you're coming home that I don't know when,

but we'll get together then.

You know we'll have a good time then.

Such a powerful. I know we'll have a good time then.

Such a powerful song. Make you be a better dad in the moment.

My son turned 10 just the other day.

He said, thanks for the ball.

Come on, let's play.

Can you teach me the throw?

I said, not today.

I got a lot to do.

He said, that's okay.'s okay and he walked away but his smile never

dip and said I'm gonna be like him yeah you know I'm gonna be like him

and the cats and I'm gonna be like him.

And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon. Little more blue and the man on the moon.

When you're coming home, Dad, I don't know when we'll get together then.

You know we'll have a good time then. Well, it came from college just the other day, so much like a man I just had to say son. I'm proud of you.
