Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

Baby, can you understand me now?

Sometimes I feel a little mad

Don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel?

If things go wrong, I seem to be mad

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 other times, it seems that all I have to do is worry

And then I know 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 get 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

But that is one thing that I would never do, 'cause I love you

Oh, don't you know I'm human?

I've got my faults just like anyone

Sometimes I lie awake long regretting

Some foolish thing, some sinful 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
