Harry Chapin: Cat's In the Cradle

I don't know if everybody has a song that makes them cry, but for me, this is the song. Every time I hear it, I tear up. 

You see, my father passed away when I was 11 years old the year this song came out. So the lyric that in particular does it for me is: 

When you coming home dad, I don't know when, but we'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then. 





From what I understand, it was Harry's wife who came up with the lyrics.
