"If Loving You Is Wrong, I Don't Wanna Be Right" lyrics

If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
If being right means living without you
I'd rather live wrong than right
My Mama and Daddy say:
"It's a shame; it's a downright disgrace"
But as long as I've got you by my side
I don't care what my people say

My friends tell me there's no future
In lovin' a married man
If I can't see you when I want
Well, then I'll see you when I can

If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
(I don't wanna be right)
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
(I don't wanna be right)

Am I wrong to fall so deeply in love with you?
Knowin' you've got a wife and two little children
Dependin' on you too
Am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch
Knowin' you've got someone else at home
Who needs you just as much?

Am I wrong to give my love to a married man?
Am I wrong for tryna hold on to the best thing I've ever had?

If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
(I don't wanna be right)
Ooh, if loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
(I don't wanna be right)

No, I don't wanna think about it

Am I wrong to give my love to a married man?
Ooh, am I wrong for tryna hold on to the best thing I've ever had?

Ooh, if loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
(I don't wanna be right)
Ooh, if loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
(I don't wanna be right)

I don't wanna be right, if it means living without you
I don't wanna be right, if it means sleepin' alone at night
No, I don't wanna be right, if loving you is wrong
I don't wanna be right
Ooh, if loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right

I don't wanna be right
Ooh, ooh, yeah
I don't wanna be right
Yeah, ooh-ooh
