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
'Cause I love you
Oh, Oh, oh, oh, baby - 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.
