You Can’t Judge a Book by Looking at the Cover
You can't judge an apple by looking at the tree
You can't judge honey by looking at the bee
You can't judge a daughter by looking at the mother
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh, can't you see?
Oh, well, you misjudge me
I look like a farmer but I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Yeah that's right
That's so good
You can't judge a fish by looking in the pond
You can't judge right by looking at the wrong
You can't judge one by looking at the other
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh, can't you see?
Oh, well, you misjudge me
I look like a farmer but I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by looking at the cover
You can't judge sugar by looking at the cane
You can't judge a woman by looking at her man
You can't judge a sister by looking at her brother
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh, can't you see?
Oh, well, you misjudge me
I look like a farmer but I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by looking at the cover
