Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

Nina Simone
… Baby, you understand me now?
If sometimes you see that I'm mad
Don'tcha know that no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong, you see some bad
… But oh, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
… You know sometimes, baby I'm so carefree
Oh, with a joy that's hard to hide
And then sometimes again it seems that all I have is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side
… But 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
I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems
And I get more than my share
But that's me one thing I never mean to do
'Cause I love you
… Oh, baby, I'm just human
Don't you know I have faults like anyone?
Sometimes I find myself alone regretting some little foolish thing
Some simple thing that I've done
… 'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Don't let me be misunderstood
… I try so hard so please don't let me be misunderstood
No, no, no, please
