See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shame_and_Scandal_in_the_Family. I remember some version of that song from the 1960s.

There's a filk song — can't remember its title or find it right now — with a similar concept. The daughter of a starship captain considers various candidates for marriage, some of them very alien-looking, and the captain tells her in each case he's the suitor's father. Finally her mother discloses that the captain actually isn't her father, so she can marry whom she wants.
