(Em)
Papa I know you're going to be upset
(D)
'Cause I was always your little girl
(Em)
But you should know by now
(D)
I'm not a baby

(Em)
You always taught me right from wrong
(D)
I need your help, daddy please be strong
(Em)
I may be young at heart
But I
(D)
know what I'm saying

(C)
The one you
(D)warned me all about
(C)
The one you
(D)
said I could do without
(C)
We're in an
(D)
awful mess, and I
(Em)
don't mean maybe,
(D)
please

Chorus:

(Em)
Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
(D)
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
(C)
But I made up my
(D)
mind, I'm
(Em)
keeping my baby,
(D)
oh, I'm gonna
(Em)
keep my baby,
(D)
mmm...

(Em)
He says that he's going to marry me
(D)
We can raise a little family
(Em)
Maybe we'll be all right
It's a
(D)
sacrifice

(C)
But my friends keep
(D)
telling me to give it up
(C)
Saying I'm too
(D)
young, I ought to live it up
(C)
What I
(D)
need right now is some
(Em)
good advice,
(D)
please

(chorus)

(C)
Daddy, daddy if
(D)
you could only see
(C)
Just how good
(D)
he's been treating me
(C)
You'd give us your
(D)
blessing right now, 'Cause
(Em)
we are in love,
(C)
we are in love, so
(D)
please

(chorus)

(Em)
Don't stop lovin' me, Daddy
(D)
I know I'm keepin' my baby
(Em)
Don't stop lovin' me, Daddy
(D)
I know I'm keepin' my baby (Last syllable on Em)
