I was going to suggest that Beatles' song that's what i danced to with my dad. dh danced to the Boys II Men song "A Song for Mama" and it was really really long.

My husband danced to "mama tried" by the Grateful Dead. So funny! Everyone loved it. Here are the lyrics: The first thing I remember knowing,

Was a lonesome whistle blowing,

And a young un's dream of growing up to ride;

On a freight train leaving town,

Not knowing where I'm bound,

No-one could change my mind but Mama tried.

One and only rebel child,

From a family, meek and mild:

My Mama seemed to know what lay in store.

Despite all my Sunday learning,

Towards the bad, I kept on turning.

'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore.

 

And I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole.

No-one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried.

Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading, I denied.

That leaves only me to blame 'cos Mama tried.

 

Instrumental break.

 

Dear old Daddy, rest his soul,

Left my Mom a heavy load;

She tried so very hard to fill his shoes.

Working hours without rest,

Wanted me to have the best.

She tried to raise me right but I refused.

 

And I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole.

No-one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried.

Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading, I denied.

That leaves only me to blame 'cos Mama tried.

"My Wish" by Rascal Flatts is my favorite!!!!!

We are doing a parent dance (the mother/son and father/daughter together) to The Rainbow Connection by Kermit the Frog. Not sure if I will use that version or one by someone else yet. Guess I should figure that out!

Great suggestions!!

My future mother-in-law loves "somewhere over the rainbow" so I'm thinking they will use that song.
