Hey There, Daddy-O

S

Silkie

How many songs can you think of that make reference to dear old Dad?

The obvious:

Papa Was A Rolling Stone - The Temps
Color Him Father - The Winstons

Any others?
 
My Dad - Paul Petersen (natch!)

Not 50s/60s, but Leader of the band - Dan Fogelberg

70s - Keep On Singing - Helen Reddy

cd
 
Father Figure-George Michael
Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast-Wayne Newton
Daddy's Home-Shep and the Limelites and later by Jermaine Jackson.
Daddy's Home-Usher
Daddy's Hands-Holly Dunn and also The Judds.
 
Daddy Sang Bass - Johnny Cash and June (Carter)
 
Far from a hit, but a cute tune:

Daddy Daddy - Robin Clark (check YouTube)----reached #120 :)

cd
 
"The Men In My Little Girl's Life" Mike Douglas
"Daddy's Little Girl" Al Martino
"18 Yellow Roses" Bobby Darin
"Papa Loves Mambo" and "The Father Of Girls" Perry Como
"Oh My Pa Pa" Eddie Fisher
"It's For My Dad" Nancy Sinatra
"Coal Miner's Daughter" and "They Don't Make 'Em Like My Daddy" Loretta Lynn
"Daddy Was An Old Time Preacher Man" Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
"A Boy Named Sue" Johnny Cash
"That's My Pa" Sheb Wooley
"Beneath A Painted Sky" Tammy Wynette
"The Living Years" Mike & The Mechanics
"Everything I Own" Bread -- David Gates wrote this as a tribute to his late father
"Watching Scotty Grow" Bobby Goldsboro
"Butterfly Kisses" Bob Carlisle
"Dance With My Father" Luther Vandross
"The Carroll County Accident" Porter Wagoner -- a dad of the cheatin' kind

not sure about this one -- "White On White" by Danny Williams -- I always thought that was about a father seeing his daughter getting married, but listening to it again, I think his "little angel" is a childhood crush marrying someone else.
 
"Charlie Brown" by the Coasters
"Keepin the Faith"------Billy Joel
" Until Daddy takes the T-Bird Away"-----(not sure if that is exact title)--------Jan and Dean
"Times they are a Changin"-----Bob Dylan

That would be "Fun Fun Fun" by The Beach Boys.
