| Oh baby, you understand me now
|
| Sometimes I get a little mad
|
| But don’t you know ain’t nobody always an angel
|
| When things go wrong I might act bad
|
| I’m just somebody who’s intentions are good
|
| Oh, I don’t wanna be misunderstood
|
| Oh, sweet baby, sometimes I’m so carefree
|
| With a joy that’s hard to hide
|
| Sometimes it seems that all I’ve gotta do is worry
|
| Then you’re bound to see my other side
|
| I’m just somebody who’s intentions are good
|
| Oh Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood
|
| If I seem edgy, I want you to know
|
| I never mean to take it out on you
|
| But life has its problems and I sure had my share
|
| And that’s one thing I never meant to do
|
| 'Cause I love you so damn much
|
| Oh daddy, don’t you know I’m human?
|
| I’ve got thoughts like any other one
|
| But sometimes I find myself alone, regretting
|
| Some stupid little thing I might have done
|
| I’m just somebody who’s intentions are good
|
| I don’t wanna be misunderstood
|
| I don’t wanna be misunderstood
|
| I’m just a soul who’s intentions are good
|
| Oh Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood
|
| I don’t wanna be misunderstood
|
| My daddy always said, «Understanding is a thing»
|
| I don’t wanna be misunderstood
|
| Don’t let me be misunderstood |
