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
