Right or Wrong by Wanda Jackson
STUDIO VERSION - 1961
Lyrics
Right or wrong I’ll be with you
I’ll do what you ask me to
For I believe that I belong
By your side, right or wrong
Right or wrong it’s got to be
Always you, always me
Won’t you take me along
To be with you right or wrong?
If it’s right for me to love you
It can’t be wrong for me to care
If you will say you love me
My life with you I’ll share
Right or wrong, day by day
All my love, all the way
For I believe that I belong
By your side, right or wrong

"Right or Wrong" or "Right or Wrong (I’ll Be with You)" is a song written and originally recorded by Wanda Jackson, an American country, rock, and Christian music artist. Originally, the song was a major country and pop hit for Jackson in 1961. A second version was released in 1964 that became popular by American Bubblegum pop artist, Ronnie Dove.
The song was recorded at the Bradley Film and Recording Studio on October 28, 1960 in Nashville, Tennessee, United States and was produced by Ken Nelson. It was one of Jackson’s first recording sessions in Nashville.[2] "Right or Wrong" was officially issued as a single in April 1961, peaking at number nine on the Billboard Magazine Hot Country and Western Sides chart. It also reached number twenty nine on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming her second top-forty single on that list. Thirdly, the single peaked at number nine on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart, her first entry on to the chart. "Right or Wrong" became the second top-ten country single of Jackson’s career.[3]
Wanda Jackson version [ edit ]
"Right or Wrong" is associated with Wanda Jackson’s "comeback" into mainstream country music. After a series of rock and roll-styled singles during the late 1950s, Jackson ultimately reverted to country and claimed to have lost her "rock" audience. She explained her reasoning to this switch in the book, Finding Her Voice: Women in Country Music, stating, "Then country music began comin’ back, and I had written a ballad called ‘Right or Wrong’ and it became a big hit…I think that when I went back to country I lost my rock and roll fans."[4]
