text: 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
  Papa dont preach
  Im in trouble, deep
  Papa dont preach
  Ive been losing sleep
  But I made up my mind, Im keeping my baby
  Ooh, 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 mе to give it up
  Saying Im too young, I ought to live it up
  What I need right now is some good advicе
  Please

  Youd give us your blessing right now
  Cause we are in love
  We are in love , so, please
