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.
Oooh, I'm gonna keep my baby. Mmmm, mmmm.
He says that he's going to marry me,
Then we can raise a little family.
Maybe we'll be alright.
It's a sacrifice.
But my friends keep telling me to give it up.
Saying I'm too young, I wanna 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.
Oooh, I'm gonna keep my baby. Oooh, oh.
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, so) 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.
Oooh, I'm gonna keep my baby. Oooh, 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.
(Papa don't preach.) Oooh, oooh.
Papa don't preach, start loving me, daddy.
(Papa don't preach.) I know I'll keep my baby.
