If lovin' you is wrong, I don't want to be right
   If being right means being without you, I'd rather live a wrongdoing life
   Your mama and dad said, "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 there's no future in lovin' a married man.
   If I can't see you when I want you, I'll see you when I can
  
   Chorus:
   If lovin' you is wrong, I don't want to be right
   If lovin' you is wrong, I don't want to be right
  
   Am I wrong to fall in love so deeply with you,
   knowin' I got a wife and two little children, depending on me too?
   And am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch,
   Knowing I got someone else's home, that needs me just as much?
  
   Chorus
  
   Instrumental Interlude
  
   Am I wrong to fall in love so deeply with you,
   Knowin' I got a wife and two little children, depending on me too?
   And am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch,
   (Havin' got?) another loveless home that needs me just as much?
  
   Chorus
  
   I don't want to be right, if it means livin' without you
   I don't want to be right, if it means doin' without you
   I don't want to be right, if it means lovin' without you
   I don't want to be right, if it means sleepin' without you
