"Your Daddy Don't Know (What Your Mama's Gonna Do Tonight)" is a song by the Canadian rock band Toronto, from their 1982 album Get It on Credit.[1]

The song was written by Geoffrey Iwamoto and Michael Roth, and was the only song on the album not written or cowritten by any member of the band.[2] Iwamoto and Roth were a songwriting duo whose other noteworthy song, "My Heart Is Still Young", was recorded by Jennifer Rush and Paris Black. The song has been interpreted as being about a stripper, or about a woman planning to cheat on her husband; the band's keyboardist Scott Kreyer claimed in interviews to not know what the song was actually about.[3]
