]Verse 1(

Baby, can you understand me now

Sometimes I feel a little mad

Don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel

When things go rough I feel real bad

]Chorus(

I'm just a soul who's intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

]Verse 1(

Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree

With a joy that's hard to hide

And othertimes it seems that, all I have to do is worry

And then I know you're bound to see my other side

]Chorus(

I'm just a soul who's intentions are good

Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

]Intro(

]Verse 2(

If I seem edgy, I want you to know

That I never mean to take it out on you

Life has its problems and I get my share

But that's one thing that I would never do

'cos I love you

]Verse 1(

Oh... Don't you know I'm human

I got my thoughts like any other one

Sometimes I find myself, Lord, regreting

Some foolish thing - some simple thing I've done

]Chorus(

I'm just a soul who's intentions are good

Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

]Intro(

]Chorus(

I'm just a soul who's intentions are good

Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

]Chorus(

I'm just a soul who's intentions are good

Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
