Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood Lyrics by Helen Schneider

Rock ‘n’ Roll Gypsy

0

[Verse 1]
Baby, can you understand now?
Sometimes I feel a little bad
Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel?
When things go wrong, I seem to be bad
[Chorus]
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
[Verse 2]
Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems that all I have to do is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side
[Chorus]
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
[Bridge]
If I seem edgy, 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 I never mean to do
'Cause I love you
[Verse 3]
Oh, baby, don't you know I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
And sometimes I find myself alone and regretting
Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done
[Chorus]
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
[Bridge]
Life has it's problems and I get my share
But that's one thing I never mean to do
[Chorus]
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
[Outro]
No, don't, don't do it
Don't let me be misunderstood
No, I'm just a soul, my intentions are good
Oh, come on, baby
Don't let me be misunderstood
Come on, listen to me
Don't do that
Oh, come on, baby
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
I never meant you to feel that way about it
Come on now, darling
It was just a little silly thing I did
Oh, come on
You know, I can't always be an angel
You know what?
Listen, come on
Hey, you! Come on
Don't let me be misunderstood now
Hey, I didn't mean it, come on
