Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood – Valerie Broussard (originally by Nina Simone)

Baby you understand me now If sometimes you see that I’m mad Don’t you know that no one alive can always be an angel? When everything goes wrong, you see some bad
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 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 got my share But that’s one thing I never mean to do
Cause I love you Oh baby Know I’m just human You know I have my faults like anyone Sometimes I find myself alone regretting Some little foolish things Simple thing I’ve done
Oh I’m just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood Misunderstood, yeah No no please, Lord Don’t let me be misunderstood Don’t let me be misunderstood
