I Don T Want To Do Wrong lyrics

I DON`T WANT TO DO WRONG
Gladys Knight and The Pips

Um I don`t wanna do wrong
But you`ve been gone baby so long
And I hope I hope you`ll understand
That it`s really, it`s really oh yes it is
It`s out of my hands but (I don`t wanna do wrong)
I don`t wanna do wrong
(But it`s been so long) it`s been so long
(I just can`t help myself) no
(No, no, no) um

since you been away
I been prayin` everyday
For God to make me strong till ya get back home
No, no, no, no I don`t wanna do it
But my heart keeps tellin` me to
I know I tried with all of my might
Ah ha I think I`ve lost this fight
(I don`t wanna do wrong) I don`t wanna do wrong
(But it`s been so long) it`s been so long
(I just can`t help myself)
I just can`t (no, no, no)
Oh yeah, No I don`t wanna
No I didn`t wanna do it ooh, ooh, oh

But then again my dear
Time passed and I didn`t hear
A comforting word from you to make me see
That you were still in love with me
So if by chance you`ve found ya` another girl
Love her and I wish ya` all the happiness in the world
`Cause I`ve found a new love and I can`t break loose
I hope I can find happiness too
(I don`t wanna do wrong)
I don`t wanna do wrong
(But it`s been so long) baby, baby, baby
(I just can`t help myself) I just can`t (no, no, no)
I just can`t (I don`t wanna do wrong)
Don`t wanna do wrong no
(But it`s been so long)
Baby, baby, baby (I just can`t help myself)
I just can`t (no, no, no)
