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
But 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 do is worry
Then you´re bound to see my other side
But 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 mean to take it out on you
Life has it´s problems and I get my share
And that´s one thing I never meant to do
Because I love you
Oh, Oh baby don´t you know I´m human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing some little simple thing I´ve done
But 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
Yes, I´m just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don´t let me be misunderstood
