“I was Wrong” Lyrics

Contained in this post are the lyrics to the song credited incorrectly as “Who Do You Love” on the Pinkpop video footage. It has been unofficially renamed “I was Wrong,” taking its name from the phrase most often repeated in the chorus by Lester Butler. The lyrics are similar to and seem to have been lifted in part from the Magic Sam tune “You Were Wrong,” while the music sounds as if it was borrowed from a different Magic Sam song called “Backstroke.” At any rate, if you’re listening to the Pinkpop performance, these are the lyrics.

(extended guitar intro)

I’ve been wrong, baby, I been so wrong, baby
I been wrong, baby, I been so wrong, girl
I been wrong, I been wrong, I been wrong
Shouldn’t of stayed away too long

Kiss me, baby, momma hold me tight
Kiss me, baby, momma hold me tight
Can’t wait another minute
Can’t wait another night

(guitar solo)

Oh yeah, baby – I feel all right
Say yeah, baby, momma feels all right
Can’t wait another minute, won’t wait another night

(harp solo)
