Lyrics:
The Ding-Dong Daddy of the D-Car Line
Had a thing for the ladies for which he did time
He reaped a little more than he could sow
Of the pleasures the Mormons in Utah know
He could not restrain himself when he saw
a nice caboose
Say Ding
Say Dong
That Ding-Dong Daddy he did
sixteen women wrong
The Ding-Dong Daddy had a sensual soul
Lonely women flocked to him and he
loved them all
The train went in the tunnel in the
dark he proposed
The bonds of matrimony in the sweetest prose
The ladies got together and decided
they'd been had
This ain't Salt Lake and you ain't Don Juan man
We've got to give you credit we was
happy for a time
But you're the Ding-Dong Daddy of the D-car line
Say Ding
Say Dong
That Ding-Dong Daddy he did
sixteen women wrong
Songwriters: Steve Perry

This swing revival didn't last long enough. I love this music. They need to bring it back.
Though the movie "1941" is a comedy it includes an excellent look at Big Band Swing music as it then was. It also well depicts how, with no TV, broadcasting live radio from ball rooms was a major form of home entertainment. I live in a California university town that took big to the Swing Revival. The owner of Mother's went as far as forming his own 14 piece Swing band which took three stages to hold. With his leading the singing & intense movements, every Thursday night was like an earthquake had hit. Not only were students "getting down" with period correct clothing and dance steps, the old timers came out for one more time around. Though they no longer threw each other threw the air, there was more than one white-haired couple who proved they could still "cut a mean rug". Though the revival only lasted a few years, what a recorded legacy they left!
Amazing track, Its criminal this only has 17thousand views!
This is fantastic! I didn't know about the modern swing/big band revival, it's awesome! The film noir in the video is a nice touch. Very well produced and tight!
Seen you guys play a few times in the early years in Eugene , what a blast .
Should have more views is better than much of the modern music, good work guys!
I love the insert of "Powerhouse" on the bridge!
Well spotted!
ichaukan it’s hard to miss lol
Especially when you’ve watched as much Looney Tunes as I have.
All aboard!
Eins, zwei, drei, vier!
Well, the Ding Dong Daddy of the D-Car line
Had a thing for the ladies for which he did time
He reaped a little more than he could sow
Of the pleasures the Mormons in Utah know
He could not restrain himself when he saw a nice caboose
Say ding (ding!)
Say dong (dong!)
That Ding Dong Daddy, he did sixteen women wrong
The Ding Dong Daddy had a sensual soul
Lonely women flocked to him and he loved them all
The train went in the tunnel, in the dark he proposed
The bonds of matrimony in the sweetest prose
The ladies got together and decided they'd been had
This ain't Salt Lake and you ain't Don Juan, man
We gotta give you credit, we was happy for a time
But you're the Ding Dong Daddy of the D-Car line
Say ding (ding!)
Say dong (dong!)
That Ding Dong Daddy, he did sixteen women wrong
I dig the "Take the A Train" piano riff at 0:09
Nice homage.
How about the insert of "Powerhouse" on the bridge?? How friggin cool is that??
Woot! You guys are awesome, so happy to see a video of one of your classics!
Whoever wrote the arrangement for this - whether it was Steve or one of the college-kid jazz guys he recruited for the band - he knew his business.
Spectacular song!
Since the "Q-Line" made it's debut open in Detroit, Michigan, city known as "The D" now, I think of that city every time I hear this song:
The Ding-Dong Daddy of "The D" "Q-Line" ? Thank you for posting. Peace!
I found out about cherry poppin daddies and the legend of the ding dong daddy from a rollerblading video in 1997 called video groove 6: toys beneath our feet. good times.
I just made me a YT video compilation of all the songs that I liked from the VG6 tape.
Thank god for the music credits at the end of the film.
Golden times indeed…

MC Large Drink!
Was this actually inspired by anything related to the Los Angeles Railway?
Yes. The song is based off the actions of a real man named Francis Van Wie. www.sfexaminer.com/news/the-ding-dong-daddy-of-the-d-car-line/
@@swineherd_ Oh thank you very much! I always knew it had to be based on a real story.
George Strait.
No wonder Norma's done.
The Daddis are still making music. Blame the record "proffessionals" who think Taylor Swift and Killin CopRap is great music.
