"Daddy" refers to
"Daddy, Won't You Please Come Home?", the signature song of 1920s jazz artist Annette Hanshaw. Recorded in 1929, it remains her most popular track and gained modern fame after appearing in the 2010 video game BioShock 2.
Song Overview
Release & Composition: Originally recorded on May 31, 1929, for Diva Records (and later Columbia/Velvet Tone) with music and lyrics by Sam Coslow.
The "Daddy" Figure: While "Daddy" was common 1920s slang for a boyfriend or lover, some interpretations of the lyrics suggest a daughter missing her father away at war.
Signature Style: The song ends with Hanshaw's trademark sign-off phrase, "That's all," which she used to conclude her recordings.
