Baby, do you understand me now?
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But, don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong
I seem to be bad
I'm just a soul
Whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please
Don't let me be misunderstood
Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems
That all I have to do is worry
And then you're bound
To see my other side
I'm just a soul
Whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please
Don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy
I want you to know
That I never meant
To take it out on you
Life has its problems
And I got my share
And that's one thing
I never meant to do
'Cause I love you
Oh oh, baby, don't you know I'm human
I have faults like any other one
And sometimes I find myself
Oh Lord, regretting
Some foolish thing
Some little simple thing I've done
I'm just a soul
Whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please
Don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul
Whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please
Don't let me be misunderstood
‘Cause I'm just a soul
Whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please
Don't let me be misunderstood
‘Cause I'm just a soul
Whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please
Don't let me be misunderstood
