Quick Answer — You Can’t Judge a Book by the Cover Lyrics

You can't judge an apple by looking at a 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.
Blues 1967 English

You Can’t Judge a Book by the Cover Full Lyrics

You can't judge an apple by looking at a 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 you misjudge me, I look like a farmer, But I'm a lover, You can't judge a book by looking at the cover. Oh come on in closer baby, Hear what else I gotta say! You got your radio turned down too low, Turn it up! 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 you misjudge me, I look like a farmer, But I'm a Lover, You can't judge a book by looking at the cover. You can't judge a fish by lookin' in the pond, You can't judge right from 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 you misjudge me, I look like a farmer, But I'm a lover, You can't judge a book by looking at the cover.
