Papa Don’t Preach

Pa-pa, 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 aw - ful mess

And I don't mean maybe.......Please

Papa, don't preach, I'm in trouble deep

Papa, dont preach, I've been losing sleep

But I made up my mind

I'm keeping my baby, ...oh

I'm gonna keep my baby.....mmm

He say's that he's gonna marry me

We can raise a little fam - i- ly

Maybe we'll be al- right, it's a sac-ri-fice

But my freinds keep telling me,

To give it up

Saying 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, dont preach, I've been losing sleep

But I made up my mind

I'm keeping my baby, ...oh

I'm gonna keep my baby.....mmm

Dad-dy Dad-dy, 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,......So please

Papa, don't preach, I'm in trouble deep

Papa, dont preach, I've been losing sleep

But I made up my mind

I'm keeping my baby, ...oh

I'm gonna keep my baby.....mmm

Keep my baby, oh oh.......
