Your Mommy's all right
Your Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Father says, "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
But when I woke up, Mom and Dad
Are rolling on the couch

Two versions of Squeeze Box which opens:
"Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when Daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night"
By The Who
plus Sheryl Crow's cover

Todd's Ship Gods
Grease, sweat, coffee, faded shipyard pictures
Giant living there I used to know
Author of the testosterone scriptures
Where did you go?
Now I remember what you told me that time
Falling from my bike,
scraping my knee
If you're gonna weep,
keep it from sunshine,
So no one sees
I won't cry
Above all things boy, be a man
See little boy hiding amongst shadows
Ashamed of tears exposing ancient pain
From the storms predicted by the Tarot
Pray for the rain
I won't cry
Above all things boy, be a man

Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime
If her daddy's rich
Take her out for a meal
If her daddy's poor
Just do what you feel
Yes, 1970 was a different time.

One of the ones my father likes is Sundown by Gordon Lightfoot. I made a comment in the car while taking my son to daycare that "Grandpa really likes this song". Now, every song that comes up, he asks me if Grandpa really likes it. He then wants to know if MY Grandpa really likes it.
Now, I know your mama, she don't like me 'cause I play in a rock and roll band
And I know your daddy, he don't dig me, but he never did understand
Your papa lowered the boom, he locked you in your room
I'm coming to lend a hand
I'm coming to liberate you, confiscate you, I want to be your man
Someday we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny
But now you're sad, your mama's mad
And your papa says he knows that I don't (have any money)
Whoa, your papa says he knows (that I don't have any money)
Whoa, so your daddy says he knows I don't have (Papa says he knows that I don't have any money)
"Hey, dad - speaking of driving.
Come on, dad, gimme the car tonight!"
"Came into this world Daddy's little girl,
And Daddy made a soldier out of me."
"You know your papa loves you; good children go to Heaven"
"She's been massaging all day but she's thinking 'bout you, daddy.
Thinking 'bout you, daddy, til they all go away.
And when she up there dancing she's just trying make a buck"
"I hope I'm living your dream, Daddy.
Have a drink on me upstairs."
