30 Best Daddy Songs – Songs With Daddy in the Title
Last Updated: June 29, 2023 | Written by Matthew Campbell (Editor of My Wedding Songs and wedding DJ)
We created our top 10 daddy songs to celebrate Father’s Day. However, there are so many uses for songs that have the word daddy in the song title. Brides can dedicate songs to their dad during the wedding reception.
Brides can choose one of the below songs for the father-daughter dance song as a formal dance during the wedding reception. Daddy songs can be played during a baby shower just for the father.
Daddy songs can also be played at the birth of his (and her) child.
Daddy songs can also be played in memory of their daddy at any event including the funeral. My song list covers many different music genres including country, R&B, jazz, and hip-hop. Surprisingly there are not any rock songs. We also covered many different music eras from 1950 through today.
If you think we should add a song to my song list, be sure to add a comment at the bottom of the page with your suggestion.
