Naughton was born in West Hartford, Connecticut, the son of Rosemary (née Walsh) and Joseph Naughton, both of whom were teachers. He is the younger brother of theater and film actor James Naughton. His family is Irish American. Naughton attended the University of Pennsylvania and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts.

David (/ˈdeɪvɪd/; Hebrew: דָּוִד, Modern David, Tiberian Dāwîḏ;ISO 259-3 Dawid; Arabic: داوُد Dāwūd; Syriac: ܕܘܝܕ Dawid; Ancient Greek: Δαυίδ; Latin: Davidus, David; Strong's: Daveed) was, according to the Books of Samuel, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel, and according to the New Testament, an ancestor of Jesus. His life is conventionally dated to c. 1040 – 970 BCE, his reign over Judah c. 1010–970 BCE.
The Books of Samuel, 1 Kings, and 1 Chronicles are the only Old Testament sources of information on David, although the Tel Dan Stele (dated c. 850–835 BCE) contains the phrase בית דוד (bytdwd), read as "House of David", which many scholars confirm to be a likely plausible match to the existence in the mid-9th century BCE of a Judean royal dynasty called the House of David.
Depicted as a valorous warrior of great renown, and a poet and musician credited for composing much of the psalms contained in the Book of Psalms, King David is widely viewed as a righteous and effective king in battle and civil justice. He is described as a man after God's own heart in 1 Samuel 13:14 and Acts 13:22.

Here is an episode from the short-lived comedy adventure series Makin' It, described as a loose TV version of the disco blockbuster film Saturday Night Fever starring David Naughton (who also had a hit record with the title theme song), Greg Antonacci, Denise Miller, and Ellen Travolta. In this episode, Tony is invited by Billy to Dorothy's birthday party, but isn't sure to attend thanks to a tiff with his father. This series lasted just nine episodes in early 1979.
A glorious seven and a half minutes version of David Naughton's one and only pop hit from 1979 - 'Makin' It'. It is certainly a moment in time that this disco track emanates, but it's lots of fun and easy to move to. Funny, I've been hearing this recording for 35 years but never tire of it.
Haciendo Memoria, un Tema Super Clasico Disco, que no podia faltar un buen viernes, de esos temas que se tocaban cuando el Extasis de la Musica estaba en su Maximo Explendor en cada uno de nosotros, Revive nuevamente el Ambiente y el Color de toda una Epoca.......Esto suena Asiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.

I'm makin it with other species
lickin up thier little feces
a german shepard, a big strong leopard
they do it better than any man can!
*Chorus*
Makin it with other species
Makin it with other species
Makin it with other species
Makin it with other species
china was, monkeys too, salamanda's stick like glue,
a big cow or just a horse
and a little duck of course
little chicken, big fat hen
all the tigers in the den
a porqupine is kinda kinky
gerbils can be pretty stinky
any animal any size I love then all
you gotta realize
don't talk back
even if they explode.
*Chorus*
little hamster you feel so fine
your soft fur Is just sublime
I'm makin it with other species
