| PAPA DON'T PREACH |
| ( Written by Byian Elliot. Additional Lyrics by Madonna ) |
| 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 |
| I'm gonna keep my baby, mmm... |
| He says that he's going to marry me |
| We can raise a little family |
| Maybe we'll be all right |
| It's a sacrifice |
| But my friends keep telling me to give it up |
| Saying I'm too young I ought to 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 |
| I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh 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 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 |
| I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh 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 |
| Oh |
| I'm gonna keep my baby ooh |
| Don't you stop loving me daddy |
| I know I'm keeping my baby |
