Baby, can you understand now Sometimes I feel a little bad Don't you know that no-one alive Can always be an angel When things go wrong I seem to be bad But I'm just a soul who's 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 But I'm just a soul who's 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 it's problems and I get my share And that's one thing I never mean to do 'Cause I love you Oh, baby, don't you know I'm human Have thoughts like any other one And sometimes I find myself alone and regretting Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done But I'm just a soul who's intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood Life has it's problems and I get my share But that's one thing I never mean to do I'm just a soul who's intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood I'm just a soul who's intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood No, don't Don't do it Don't let me be misunderstood No, I'm just a soul My intentions are good Oh come on baby Don't let me be misunderstood Come on Listen to me
