I Don't Want to Be Right Songtext

von Barbara Mandrell

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
I'll see you when I can

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

Am I wrong to fall
So deeply in love with you
Knowing you've got a wife
And two little children
Depending on you too
Am I wrong to hunger
For the gentleness of your touch
Knowing 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 trying to hold on
To the best thing I've ever had

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

---- Instrumental Interlude ----

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

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

I don't want to be right
If it means living without you
I don't want to be right
If it means sleeping alone at night
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 loving you is wrong
No, I don't want to be right
