Papa Don't Preach Lyrics

I may be young at heart
But I know what...

    Okay, have you ever dated a bad boy and your dad didn’t approve? Well I believe it’s about a young girl who’s dad is going to preach to her about getting married young! Nothing to do with teen pregnancy at all! She’s saying that she’s keeping her man because then she said he’s going to marry me!
