Baby, do you understand me now   Sometimes I feel a little mad   Well, 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 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      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, oh, oh, baby, don't you know I'm human?   Have thoughts like any other one   Sometimes I find myself alone and regretting   Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done      I'm just a soul who's intentions are good   Oh Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood      Yes, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good   Oh Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood      Yes, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good   Oh Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood      Yes, I'm just a soul who's intentions are good   Oh Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood
