Papa Don't Preach (LP version) Lyrics

Papa I know youre going to be upset
cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now
Im 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 Im saying

The one you warned me all about
The one you said I could do without
Were in an awful mess, and I dont mean maybe - please

Chorus:

Papa dont preach, Im in trouble deep
Papa dont preach, Ive been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, Im keeping my baby, oh
Im gonna keep my baby, mmm...
He says that hes going to marry me
We can raise a little family
Maybe well be all right
Its a sacrifice

But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying Im too young, I ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good advice, please

(chorus)
Daddy, daddy if you could only see
Just how good hes been treating me
Youd give us your blessing right now
cause we are in love, we are in love, so please

(chorus)

Papa dont preach, Im in trouble deep
Papa dont preach, Ive been losing sleep
(repeat)

Oh, Im gonna keep my baby, ooh
Dont you stop loving me daddy
I know, Im keeping my baby
