Lyrics[edit]

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 seem to be bad

'Cause 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 meant to take it out on you
But life has its problems and I've got my share
That's one thing I never meant to do
'Cause I love you

Baby! Don't you know I'm just human
And I've got thoughts like any other man?
And sometimes I feel myself alone, regretting
Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done

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

Oh, Lord! Don't you let me be misunderstood!
Don't let me be!
Don't let me be misunderstood!
No! No! No! No! No! No!
