Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

Joe Cocker

1. Baby, do you understand me now
   Sometimes I feel a little mad
   Well don't you know that no-one alive can always be an angel
   When things go wrong I seem to be bad

R: I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
   Oh Lord please don't let me be misunderstood

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

R: I'm just a soul...

*: 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

3. Oh, oh, oh, baby, don't you know I'm human
   Have thoughts like any other one
   Sometimes I find myself long regretting
   Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done
