His California Album
[Verse 1]
If loving you is wrong, I don't want to be right
If being right means being without you
I'd rather live a wrong doing life
Your mama and daddy 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 said ''it's no future in loving a married man''
If I can't see you when I wanna, I'll see you when I can

[Chorus]
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right

[Verse 2]
Am I wrong to fall to fall in love, 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?

[Bridge]
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?

[Chorus]
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right

[Bridge]
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?

[Chorus]
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right
If loving you is wrong, I don't wanna be right

[Verse 3]
I don't want to be right if it means being without you
I don't want to be right if it means sleeping at night
I don't want to be right if loving you is wrong
