from the '70s, "Daddy Please Don't" (or something like that)?

Nope, neither of those. This was a tune with a chorus by a girl
pleading / singing, "Daddy, please don't, it wasn't his fault, he
means so much to me. Daddy, please don't, we're gonna get married,
just you wait and see..." It was really over the top melodrama, and I
always hated that song cause the father's voice/character (in that
song) reminded me of the nasty Oliver Reed character in the
movie "Tommy." It took my years to forgive my grandparents for taking
me and my brother (ages 10 and 8) to see that flick, which they heard
was a contemporary musical film that they thought we would enjoy. We
left very shortly after the Acid Queen sequence!
Be seeing you,
Bill
