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 feel real 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

Mean to take it

out on you

Life has its problems

and I get my share

And that ' s one thing

I never mean to do

Oh don ' t you know

I ' m human I have

Thoughts like

any other one

Sometimes I find myself

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

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
