Nina Simone - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood lyrics

Baby you understand me now

If sometimes you see I'm mad

Doncha know that no one alive can always be an angel?

When everything goes wrong you see some bad

Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Ya know sometimes baby I'm so carefree

With a joy that's hard to hide

Then sometimes it seems again that all I have is worry

And then you burn to see my other side

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy

I want you to know

I never meant to take it out on you

Life has it's problems

And I get more than my share

But that's me one thing I never mean to do

'Cos I love you

Oh baby

I'm just human

Don't you know I have faults like anyone?

Sometimes I find myself alone regretting

Some little fooling thing

Some simple thing that I've done

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

I try so hard

So don't let me be misunderstood
