Papa Don't Preach

Papa I know you're going to be upset

Cause I was always your little girl

You should know by now I'm not a baby

You always taught me right from wrong

Need your help daddy please be strong

I may be young at heart

But I know what I'm saying

The one you warned me all about

The one you said I could do without

We're in an awful mess and I don't mean maybe please

Papa don't preach

I'm in trouble deep

Papa don't preach

I've been losing sleep

But I made up my mind I'm keeping

My baby oh I'm gonna keep my baby hmm

He says that he's going to marry me

And we can raise a little family

Maybe we'll be alright it's a sacrifice

But my friends keep tellin' me to give it up

Sayin' I'm too young I ought to live it up

What I need right now is some good advice please

Papa don't preach

I'm in trouble deep

Papa don't preach

I've been losing sleep

But I made up my mind I'm keeping

My baby oh I'm gonna keep my baby oh oh

Daddy daddy if you could only see

Just how good he's been treating me

You give us your blessing right now

Cause we are in love

We are in love

We are in love

So please papa don't preach

I'm in trouble deep

Papa don't preach

I've been losing sleep

But I made up my mind I'm keeping

My baby oh papa don't preach

I'm in trouble deep

Papa don't preach

I've been losing sleep

Papa don't preach

I'm in trouble deep

Papa don't preach

I've been losing sleep

Papa don't preach

Oh I'm gonna keep my baby oh yeah

Don't you stop loving me daddy

I know I'm keeping my baby baby baby baby
