Danza was born in Brooklyn, New York, to parents Anne Cammisa Iadanza (1925–1993) and Matty Iadanza (1920–1983), both of whom died from cancer. Matty Iadanza worked as a garbage man in Brooklyn.

When Danza was 14, he and his family relocated to Malverne, New York on Long Island. Danza attended Malverne High School, graduating in 1968. In the first episode of his show "Teach: Tony Danza", Danza describes himself as a "bad student" in high school. Danza earned a bachelor's degree in history in 1972 from the University of Dubuque, which he attended on a wrestling scholarship. It was during his first year of college that he got the Robert Crumb Keep on Truckin' tattoo on his upper right arm. In a 1985 interview in Us Weekly magazine, Danza remarked, "I was playing pool with a guy who had all these tattoos, and I wanted to be friends." Danza sports a "Keep Punching" boxing gloves tattoo on his right shoulder. In college, Danza met and married his first wife. Danza was a professional boxer with a 9-3 record, with all of his fights, wins and losses, ending by knockout.

Genres: Comedy, Crime, Short,So warm is my morning sun, red is my rainbow
Soft is the cool summer breeze when I saw your face
I saw the light in your eyes so dark and demanding
Like a light in the storm
Whenever I cry my friend
You're always away and so I pretend
If I could live the dreams that I see
Long live my love
Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again
Living my whole life through
Long live my love for you
My life has meaning now, I am a window
And all things seem clear to me nowLike a light in the storm
Whenever I cry my friend
You're always away and so I pretend
If I could live the dreams that I see
Long live my love
Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again
Living my whole life through
Long live my love
Walking in country (country) lanes (country lanes)
I'll never belong to someone again
Living my whole life through
Long live my love for you
