Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood

Baby, do you understand me now?
Sometimes I feel a little mad
Don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong, it seems so 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 all I do is worry
And then I show my other side

'Cause 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'd never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I get my share
That's one thing that I never mean to do
'Cause I love you

'Cause 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'd 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

Oh baby, don't you know I'm human
And have thoughts like any other one
And sometimes I find myself alone
Regrettin' some foolish things that I have done

'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
No, no, no, misunderstood
Oh yeah, yeah, don't let me be misunderstood
Please don't let me be misunderstood
