"Right to Be Wrong" is a soul–soft rock song written by English singer-songwriter Joss Stone, Desmond Child, and Betty Wright for Stone's second studio album, Mind, Body & Soul (2003). Released in November 2004 in the UK and February 2005 in the U.S. as the album's second single, it peaked at number twenty-nine on the UK Singles Chart, where it stayed for six weeks. The song was covered in Spanish by Mexican rock singer Alejandra Guzmán on her 2004 album Lipstick, retitled "Tengo Derecho a Estar Mal" (meaning "I've Got the Right to Feel Bad").
Stone performed a folk version of the song when she made an appearance as herself in the third season of the American series American Dreams, in the episode "Starting Over", which aired on 30 January 2005.
