Baby, do you understand me now, sometimes I feel a little mad
And don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong your bound to see the bad

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh no, please don't let me be misunderstood

Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree with a joy that's hard to hide
Then sometimes it seems that all I have to do is worry
And you're bound to see the other side

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh no, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem mean to you, I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I get my share
And that's one thing that I never mean to do, 'cause I love you

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 little sinful thing I've done

And I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh no, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem mean to you, I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I get my share
And that's one thing that I never mean to do, 'cause I love you

Baby, don't you know I'm human
I have faults like any other one
Sometimes I find myself alone and regretting
Some foolish little sinful thing I've done

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh no, please don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh no, please don't let me be misunderstood
