Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood / Esmeralda Suite - Santa Esmeralda, Leroy Gomez

Babe, do you understa-a-a-and 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 o-on you.

Your life has its problems and I’ve got my share,

That’s one thing I never meant to do 'cause I lo-ove you!

Babe, don’t you know I’m just hu-uman

And I’ve got thoughts like any other man.

And sometimes I feel myself, oh Lord, 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-ee misunderstoo-u-ud!

Don’t let me be-ee-ee… Don’t let me be misunderstoo-u-u-ud!

No, no, no, no, no, (no)…

Oh, 'h, come to me baby…

Esmeralda, ah, come on baby…

You’re so swee-eet, my swee-eet…

Esmeralda, help me now, I love ya…

Oh, don’t play with me baby…

Come on, talk to me, Esmera-alda!

Oh baby, oh please, oh Lord, plea-ea-ea-ea-ease babe,

My sweet Esmeralda!

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!

Baby, sometimes I’m so carefree

With a joy that’s hard to hi-a-a-aide.

And sometimes it seems that all I have to do is wo-orry

And then you’re bound to see my other side.

'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,

That’s one thing I never meant to do 'cause I lo-ove you!

Oh, babe, don’t you know I’m hu-uman,

I have thoughts like any other man!

And sometimes I feel myself, oh Lord, regretting

Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I’ve do-o-o-one.

'Cause I’m just a soul whose intentions are goo-u-ud.

Oh, Lord!

Please, don’t let me be misunderstood!
