Lyrics:

Baby, do you understand me now
Sometimes I might seem a little mad
Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel
And whoa, when a thing goes wrong it seems so bad

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

And then sometimes I feel so carefree
With a joy that is hard to hide
Then the is all I have seem to do is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side

But 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
I never mean to take it out on you

Life has its problems
And I get my share
But that's one thing I never mean to do

'Cause I love you
Don't you know I'm only human
I have thoughts like any other man
And sometimes I might sit alone and not regretting
Some foolish thing I might have done

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Don't let me be misunderstood
Oh no, don't let me be misunderstood

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