Isaac Hayes - If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want To Be Right) Lyrics






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

Your mama and daddy say it's a shame
It's a downright disgrace
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 loving a married man
If I can't see you when I want to
I'll see you when I can
If loving you is wrong I don't wanna be right
If loving you is wrong I don't wanna 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
And am I wrong to hunger
For the gentleness of your touch
Knowing I got somebody else at home
Who needs me just as much

And are you wrong to fall in love
With a married man
And am I wrong 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

Are you wrong to give your love
To a married man
And am I wrong 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

I don't wanna be right
If it means sleeping alone at night
I don't wanna be right
If it means coming home at night
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna never, never, never be right

  1. A.... V....

    this has under 600 likes...... what in the actual fuck

  2. T.... T....

    Al gator brought me here

  3. T.... R....

    This is awesome but for me Luther when sings it, you can feel it in his voice..

  4. S.... ....

    I love the arrangement of this song, the horns and strings give this a yearning and urgency in the chorus.

  5. C.... B....

    Isaac Hayes’ Vocals and coordinated music direction nails it.

  6. T.... Y....

    And here he goeth doing his thing (thang) all over again ... that bald-headed, delicious and dark thing with its equally dark glasses ... That tantalising thing (thang) with its wooing, woozing, oozing, musing, moving, grooving, brooding, brown-and-sometimes-seemingly-hazel eyes. That thing with its lips that inciteth one unto almost kissing anyone or anything directly in front of them !!!

    Indeed, dear Bubba ... "IF LOVING THEE IS WRONG, Uncle DON'T WANNA (wanteth not) UNTO BE RIGHT !!! Here we art on the eve of thy birthday ... on the precipice of when thou becometh 77 years of age since thy birth and disregarding thine Earthly death of 2008 ... here on the 19th of August of 2019 ... whilst '77' is actually the exact year of Uncle's birth ... beautiful '77'. Hence, we art imbibing a glass of something that includeth a shot of 'Bubba-in-a-bottle' .. Jack Daniels also hailing from Tennessee, as ye do thyself.

    In advance, beautiful thing ... thank ye so much for thy beautiful artistry, compositions and re-interpretations that thou wast delivering even before Uncle wast born ... that Uncle was perhaps even conceived unto (as many of generation x and beyond have been). One never knows .... nor wouldst one ask ... It wouldst be more than 'awkward'!!! Let that king of thing remain between the parents !!! But if that wert the case, it wouldst explain this Isaac-Hayes-microchip that hast been deeply embedded within mine internal circuitry ... you know ?!?

    After the clock strikes midnight GMT ... is when we shalt say 'Happy Birthday' unto thee (rhyme).

    Dear publisher 'Stax' ... stacks (Stax) of thanks (thanx) {rhyme} unto thee !!!

    Dear Isaac of the Hayes-ness type ... Uncle loveth thee ... minus apology or guilt ... UNCLE LOVETH THEE !!! PERIOD !!!
