Baby do you understand me now 
Sometimes I get a little mad 
Don't you know no one alive 
Can always be an angel 
When things go wrong 
Your bound to see some bad 

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

You know sometimes I'm so carefree 
With a joy that's hard to hide 
And sometimes again it seems 
All I have is worry 
Then your bound to see the other side 

Oh 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 
I didn't mean to take it out on you 
Life has it's problems I've got my share 
But thats one thing I didn't mean to do 
Cause I love you,yes I do

Baby do you understand me now 
If sometimes I get a little bit mad 
Don't you know no one alive 
Can always be an angel 
When things go wrong 
Your bound to see some bad 

But I'm just a soul who's intentions are good 
Oh Lord , please don't let me be misunderstood 
Don't let me be misunderstood ,oh baby,
Don't let me be...to die...
