Baby, 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
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, yeah
Life has its problems
And I get my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do
'Cause I love you

Oh oh oh, baby, don't you know that I'm just human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself wrong and 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

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

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