If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want to Be Right) Songtext
von Millie Jackson

If loving you is wrong
I don′t wanna be right
If being right means being without you
I'd rather live a long due life

Your momma 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

My friends tell me it′s no future
In loving a married man
If I can′t see you when I wanna
I'll have to see you when I can

If loving you is wrong
I don′t wanna be right
If loving you is so wrong, baby
I don't wanna be right


Am I wrong to fall so deeply in love with you
Knowing you have a wife and two little children depending on you, too?
Am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch
Knowing you have someone else at home who needs you just as much?

Am I wrong to give my 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 wanna be right
If loving you is wrong
I don't wanna be right, baby (whoa)

No, baby, uh-uh
Tell me, na-na

Am I wrong to give my love
To a married man?
Am I wrong for trying to hold on
To the best thing I ever had?

If loving you is so wrong
I don′t wanna be right
If loving you is wrong, baby
I just can't be right (whoa)


I don't wanna be right, no, baby
I don′t wanna be right, oh, baby

Oh, I′ve been loving you a little bit too long
I can't give up on your loving now
I love you, want you, need you, got to have ya (ah!)
Good God almight, baby
I love it (mm-mm-mmh)
I need you, let me have ya (uh!)
