"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" lyrics

"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood"
(originally by Nina Simone)

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 seem to be bad

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 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

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
And that's one thing I never meant to do
Because I love you

Oh, oh, baby, don't you know I'm human
I have faults like any other one
Sometimes I find myself alone and regretting
Some foolish thing some little simple thing I've done

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

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

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