The song Cat's in the Cradle was written by Harry Chapin and his wife Sandy Chapin. Harry Chapin is also the performer of the song. Cat Stevens never recorded the song, although whether or not he may have covered the song live or otherwise is unclear.

No, the hit version of this song was by Harry Chapin. It was a hit in 1974, and since then, various people have recorded it, but I don't believe Cat Stevens was one of them. (Harry Chapin did sound a bit like Cat Stevens though.)
Actually it's a Harry Chapin song....Cat Stevens may have covered it. Anyway, it's about the cycle of life.
