"Sugar Daddy" is a hit single by the Motown quintet The Jackson 5 from their first greatest hits album, released in late 1971.

The song peaked at #3 on the US Best Selling Soul Singles chart and at #10 on the US Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in early 1972. "Sugar Daddy" was one of the Jackson 5 hits produced by The Corporation, the group's record production team, composed by Berry Gordy, Freddie Perren, Alphonzo Mizell, and Deke Richards.

Record World said it has "the happy, uptempo sound that made [the Jackson 5] superstars."

The single's B-side is the non-album track "I'm So Happy". Both of these songs were included as bonus tracks on the 2001 re-release of the Jackson 5 studio album Maybe Tomorrow (1971).
