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