Papa Won't Preach 作曲 : Mirei Toyama/Samuel Morris Zornow/Zak Adams Leaver When I got up for school, my dad was already gone He'd barely make it home after dinner was done Rub his eyes go back to bed he never said a word Over and over again and I was never heard I could only worry, wishing don't mean a thing What could I do for him? Is it not enough to be a good kid Papa won't preach, he ain't got time for it Papa's not rich, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Wish it could stop but life ain't free He ain't got time for it Papa can't quit, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Papa wont preach papa wont preach And when I wake up now, alone in tokyo I work my heart away and wait to see it go I picture my dad I know how he would feel Because I write my songs and what I write is real I could only worry, wishing don't mean a thing What can I do for him is it not enough to be a good kid Papa won't preach, he ain't got time for it Papa's not rich, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Wish he could stop but life ain't free He ain't got time for it Papa can't quit, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Papa won't preach Papa won't preach And all that I see is crumbling down But when I go home he's smiling now Yeah I tried my best and didn't know how I wish that the world would slow down Papa won't preach, he ain't got time for it Papa's not rich, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Wish he could stop but life ain't free He ain't got time for it Papa can't quit, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Papa won't preach Papa won't preach, he ain't got time for it Papa's not rich, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Wish he could stop but life ain't free He ain't got time for it Papa can't quit, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Papa wont preach Papa won't preach, he ain't got time for it Papa's not rich, he gotta work for it Papa won't preach, what do I do to make him see Papa wont preach Papa wont preach
