Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood

(Oh, Lord)

Baby, do you understand now?
Sometimes I feel a little mad
And 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
Oh, Lord

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've got my share
That's one thing I never meant to do
'Cause I love you

Baby, don't you know I'm just human
And I've got thoughts like any other man?
And sometimes I find myself long regretting
(The foolish things) the foolish things I've done

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
(Don't let me be misunderstood)
Oh, Lord
(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 be misunderstood)
(Don't let me be misunderstood)

Don't let me be misunderstood
Don't let me be misunderstood
(Don't let me be...no, no, no, no, no)

(Don't let me be misunderstood)
Don't let me be misunderstood
(Don't let me be misunderstood)

Oh, Lord
Oh, Lord
