Baby, do you understand me now,
Sometimes I feel a little mad.
But, don’t you know that no one alive can always be an angel.
When things go wrong I feel real 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 that, all I have to do is worry
And then 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 seem 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,
And that’s one thing I never mean to do,

‘Cause I love you,
Oh,

Oh, oh, oh, baby – don’t you know I’m human.
I have thoughts like any other one.
Sometimes I find myself, Lord, regretting,
Some foolish thing – some little simple thing I’ve done.

I’m just a soul whose intentions are good,
Oh Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood.
