años 80: Papa don´t preach

1986, del album true blue, fue un éxito alcanzando el numero 1 en las listas de EEUU y el Reino Unido,
Papa Don't Preach" es un tema bailable con un dramático ritmo en el que Madonna nos cuenta la historia de una chica joven que le pide a su padre que no la sermonee por haber quedado embarazada. Una letra fuerte para la plena época puritana de los años 80, donde tanto el sexo como este tema seguían siendo tabú en la sociedad.



letra:
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, oh
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


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
(repeat)

Oh, I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh
Don't you stop loving me daddy
I know, I'm keeping my baby
