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
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 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 oh baby don't you know that I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing some simple little thing
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord please don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord please don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord please don't let me be misunderstood
Don't let me jump
Don't let me be misunderstood
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Don't let me be misunderstood
Oh misunderstood no no no no no
Don't let me be misunderstood
