(If Loving Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right Lyrics

If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
If being right means being without you
I'd rather live alone doin' life
Your mama and daddy say it's a shame
It's a downright disgrace
But long as I got you by my side
I don't care what your people say

Your friends tell you it's no future
In lovin' a married man
If I can't see you when I want
I'll see you when I can

If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right

Am I wrong to fall
So deeply in love with you
Knowing I got a wife and two little children
Depending on me too
Am I wrong to hunger
For the gentleness of your touch
Knowing I got someone else at home
Who needs me just as much

And are you wrong to give your love
To a married man
And am I wrong for trying to hold on
To the best thing I ever had

If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
Are you wrong to give your love
To a married man
And am I wrong for trying to hold on
To the best thing I ever had

If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right

I don't want to be right
If it means being without you
I don't want to be right
If it means sneaking at night

I don't want to be right
If loving you is wrong
I don't want to be right
