William Austin Dillon (November 6, 1877–February 10, 1966) was an American songwriter and Vaudevillian. He is best known as the lyricist for the song "I Want A Girl (Just Like The Girl That Married Dear Old Dad)" (1911), written in collaboration with Harry Von Tilzer.〔Clift, Gene (25 March 1962). (He Got The Girl, Just As The Song Said ), ''Daytona Beach Morning Journal''〕〔Dabes, Ruth. (Man of a Thousand Songs ), ''The Rotarian'' (May 1953), p. 39〕 It can be heard in ''Show Business'' (1944) and ''The Jolson Story'' (1946). He was born in Cortland, New York and performed at some point in Vaudeville with his brothers John and Harry. He billed his own act as the "man of a thousand songs".〔(3 October 1908).
