Luther Ingram: (If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right

El sello Stax Records tiene en su "haber" permitir que artistas negros pudieran publicar una música que llevaban latente en su interior, el soul. De esa forma surgieron artistas y canciones que pudieron aflorar para deleite de nuestros oidos. "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right" es una de ellas, surgida del equipo de escritores del sello, fue Luther Ingram quien la popularizó en un primer momento llevándola durante varias semanas a lo más alto de las listas de R&B.

Como siempre, todos los artistas de esos años 70 transmitiendo toda la fuerza y energía propia de esa década fantástica. Pero asi es, su hermosa y profunda voz conduce con pasión y vigor la interpretación de un clásico del soul.


Letra
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
