"I Wonder If I Take You Home" is a song recorded in 1984 and released as a single in 1985 by Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam with Full Force. Originally released on the label Personal Records, the then-obscure song was licensed to CBS Records for a European breakdancing album, and then it was released as a single in the United States on Columbia Records after the song received heavy play from club DJs who had imported the album. "I Wonder If I Take You Home" reached #1 on the "Billboard" Hot Dance Club Play chart for one week in June of 1985; it peaked at #6 on the R&B chart; and it reached #34 on the Hot 100. It also charted at #12 on the UK Singles Chart. The single was certified as gold in the U.S. by the RIAA.

Its chorus was sampled for the Black Eyed Peas 2005 hit song, "Don't Phunk With My Heart". The song has also been sampled by Kylie Minogue (in her song "Secret (Take You Home)"), Pitbull (in his song "I Wonder", featuring Oobie), and in the Junior Mafia featuring Aaliyah single, "I Need You Tonight".
