Ed Clark—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images by [Ben Cosgrove](https://time.com/author/ben-cosgrove/) ## Ben Cosgrove May 26, 2014 7:11 PM UTC Back in 1995, the singer-songwriter — and [excellent cartoonist](http://www.amazon.com/The-Book-Leviathan-Peter-Blegvad/dp/B001VNBA7M) — Peter Blegvad released a song later made semi-famous when a cover version by Loudon Wainwright III was featured on the soundtrack for Judd Apatow’s _Knocked Up_. The song, “Daughter,” is as sweet and true as any song ever written by a parent to a child, and manages to capture in relatively few words the intense, tender, exasperating and, through it all, loving relationships that dads and daughters enjoy — or, at times, simply endure. (Wainwright, interestingly, enough, is the father of Rufus Wainwright and the son of a longtime LIFE magazine writer and editor, Loudon Wainwright, Jr.) Here, in a special Father’s Day gallery, LIFE.com applauds that unique familial bond with photos of famous fathers and their daughters — and, for a little variety, one famous daughter and her dad. Blegvad’s lyrics to “Daughter,” meanwhile, are worth celebrating in their own right. See them below. You can also [buy the song itself](http://www.amazon.com/Daughter/dp/B001QHV7WQ/ref=sr%5F1%5Fcc%5F1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1371135034&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=peter+blegvad+daughter), or get the whole CD, [_Just Woke Up_](http://www.amazon.com/Just-Woke-Up-Peter-Blegvad/dp/B0000250CR), on which “Daughter” originally appeared. Go. Now. Buy it. “Daughter” © 1995 Peter Blegvad Everything she sees she says she wants. And everything she says she wants I see she gets. That’s my daughter in the water, everything she owns I bought her, Everything she owns. That’s my daughter in the water, Everything she knows I taught her. Everything she knows. Everything I say She takes to heart. And everything she takes, She takes apart. That’s my daughter in the water, Every time she fell I caught her, Every time she fell. That’s my daughter in the water I lost every time I fought her. Yeah, I lost every time. Every time she blinks she strikes somebody blind, And everything she thinks Blows her tiny mind. Happy Father’s Day, everyone.
