Baby, do you understand me now?
Sometimes I seem a little mad
Don't you know no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong, you're bound to see some bad
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord (oh Lord), oh Lord
Please don't let me be misunderstood
I've tried so hard not to be misunderstood
Baby, oh I'm so carefree
With a joy, a joy that's hard to hide
Then, in other times
All it seems I have is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord (oh Lord), oh Lord
Please don't let me be misunderstood
I've tried so hard
When I got edgy, I want you to know
That I never meant to take it out on you
Life has it's problems, oh, I get more than my share
But that's one thing I never meant to do
Baby, oh, I'm just human
I've got my thoughts like any one
(Don't let me be misunderstood)
Sometimes I find myself alone and I'm regretting
Some foolish thing, some stupid thing that I have done
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
I've tried so hard...
