Papa Don't Preach
Lyrics
Papa, I know you're going to be upset
'Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now
I'm not a baby
You always taught me right from wrong
I 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, hm
I'm gonna keep my baby, hm
He says that he's going to marry me
And we can raise a little family
Maybe we'll be all right
It's a sacrifice
But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying I'm too young, I oughta 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, hm
I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh ooh
Daddy, daddy if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us your blessing right now
'Cause we are in love
We are in love (in love), so please (so)
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, hm
I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh ooh
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)
Papa, don't preach (ooh)
Papa, don't preach (don't stop loving me, daddy)
Papa, don't preach (I know I'm keeping my baby)
