Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

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

'Cause 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 meant to take it out on you

Life has its problems and I've got my share

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

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 regrettin'

Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done

'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh, Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Oh, Lord, don't you let me be misunderstood

Don't let me be

Don't let me be misunderstood

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

If I seem edgy, I want you to know

That I never meant to take it out on you

Life has its problems and I've got my share

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

Baby, don't you know I'm just human?

And I've got thoughts like any other man

But sometimes I feel myself alone and regretting

Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done

'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh, Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Oh, Lord, don't you let me be misunderstood

Don't let me be

Don't let me be misunderstood

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Oh, come to me, baby

Esmeralda, come on, baby

You're so sweet, my sweet Esmeralda, babe

Esmeralda, baby, I love you

Oh, don't play with me, baby

Come on, come to me, Esmeralda

Oh, baby, oh, please

How I need you, baby

My sweet Esmeralda

Oh, Lord, don't let me be misunderstood

Don't let me be

Don't let me be misunderstood

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
