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 helpdaddy please be strong
I may be young at heart
But I know what I’m saying
The one you warned me about
The one you said I could do without
We’re in an awful messand I don’t mean maybeplease
Papa don’t preachI’m in trouble deep
Papa don’t preachI’ve been losing sleep
But I made up my mindohI’m keeping my baby
OohoohI’m going to keep my babyooh
He saws that he’s going to marry me
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 youngI ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good adviceplease
Papa don’t preachI’m in trouble deep
Papa don’t preachI’ve been losing sleep
But I made up my mindohI’m keeping my baby
OohoohI’m going to keep my babyooh
Daddydaddy if you could only see
Just how good he’s been treating me
You’d give us a blessing right now
Cause we are in lovewe are in loveso please
Papa don’t preachI’m in trouble deep
Papa don’t preachI’ve been losing sleep
But I made up my mindohI’m keeping my baby
OohoohI’m going to keep my babyooh
Don’t stop loving me daddy
I knowI’m keeping me baby
Don’t stop loving me daddy
I knowI’m keeping my baby
