Question I just recently found out that Katey Sagal wrote and recorded the song "Daddy's Girl", I was wondering if you knew where I would be able to get the song because I like that to be the song I dance with my father to at my wedding. Thank you.
Answer Hi Traci,
Katey's song "Daddy's Girl" was released in 2004 on her CD called "Room". It's still in print on a small label called Valley Records and you can find a copy of it for under $15 at most online music retailers. If you want a used copy, check amazon marketplace or eBay.
The lyrics are:
My old man
I’m a chip off the old block
My old man
Is still living here
Not in flesh and bone, he’s never far from home
I’m forever walkin in my daddy’s shoes
I’ve got his misery, I got good company
Guess I’ll always be
my daddy’s girl
My momma sang
Call it inspiration
And she’s comin on through me
I can feel her now
Though she walks on the other side
To me she’s still quite alive
I’m forever rockin in my mommas arms
Mom had a broken heart
From a world just too damn hard
Mine breaks often cause I’m a momma’s girl
You spend a lifetime saying this is who I am
Then you find yourself saying something
You don’t understand, you look in the mirror
There you are
Your daddy’s girl
Have a wonderful wedding! (Might wanna cut out that "I've Got His Misery" line, though!)
