[00:33.920]Papa I know you're going to be upset
[00:37.770]'Cause I was always your little girl
[00:41.880]But you should know by now
[00:44.640]I'm not a baby
[00:49.320]You always taught me right from wrong
[00:53.050]I need your help, daddy please be strong
[00:57.460]I may be young at heart
[01:00.540]But I know what I'm saying
[01:04.950]The one you warned me all about
[01:08.630]The one you said I could do without
[01:13.030]We're in an awful mess, and I don't mean maybe - please
[01:17.530]Chorus:
[01:20.730]Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
[01:23.890]Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
[01:28.630]But I made up my mind, I'm keeping my baby, oh
[01:35.700]I'm gonna keep my baby, mmm...
[01:39.390]He says that he's going to marry me
[01:43.080]We can raise a little family
[01:47.190]Maybe we'll be all right
[01:51.120]It's a sacrifice
[01:54.920]But my friends keep telling me to give it up
[01:58.620]Saying I'm too young, I ought to live it up
[02:03.680]What I need right now is some good advice, please
[02:26.050](chorus)
[02:46.530]Daddy, daddy if you could only see
[02:50.110]Just how good he's been treating me
[02:54.040]You'd give us your blessing right now
[02:58.180]'Cause we are in love, we are in love, so please
[03:11.590](chorus)
[03:22.480]Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
[03:25.850]Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
[03:38.570](repeat)
[03:41.090]Oh, I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh
[03:44.420]Don't you stop loving me daddy
[03:45.740]I know, I'm keeping my baby
[04:05.460]
