Baby, do you understand me now
that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to feel bad
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've got my share
That's one thing I never meant to do
Baby, don't you know I'm just human
And I've got thoughts like any other man
And sometimes I feel myself alone and regretting
Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
