Popular Post Charlie E Posted May 20, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Some of the saddest lyrics ever written. - "My 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." I read that the song, Cat's In The Cradle, is actually from a poem written by his wife. I just watched a documentary on Harry Chapin's life. He was an amazingly selfless guy with a passion to end world hunger. Like so many, he was taken too soon.

wombatie Posted May 21, 2023 Report Share Posted May 21, 2023 Love the song. Remember singing that song packed in a car about 30 years ago, thankfully no police on the road. Excellent pattern and portrait. Marg Charlie E and Dave Monk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know much about him except that he sang Cat's In The Cradle until recently. If you haven't heard this one, Mr. Tanner, it's worth a listen. Just a powerful, bloom where you're planted message, for me. Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preprius Posted May 21, 2023 Report Share Posted May 21, 2023 i have always like Harry Chapin. Mr. Tanner is a great song. "Corey's comming" is also a nice story. 30,000 pounds of bananas. The name printed on the old album showed 300,000. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
