| Artist = [[Elvis Presley]] featuring [[Lisa Marie Presley]]

'''"Don't Cry Daddy"''' was recorded by Elvis Presley and featured his daughter, Lisa Marie on January 15, 1969 and released as a single. Some speculate that it is a consolation song considering that Elvis's father became a widower upon the death of his wife in 1958. The song reached #6 in the U.S. and #8 in the U.K.

The song takes place in the mind of the husband of the wife and mother that had just passed. The characters are the father (Elvis), the mother, one of his unnamed children (Lisa), and a young child named Tommy. The young child tells his father not to cry saying they will find a new "mama." HeShe is speaking to his dad to play with him and his brother as done when the children were younger.
