Baby do you understad me now sometimes I feel a little mad 
but don't you know that noone alive can always be an angel 
when things go wrong I seem to be bad 
'cause I'm just a soul who's attentions 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 
life has its problems and I 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 oh lord regretting 
some foolish thing some foolish thing I've done 
'cause I'm just a soul who's 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
