(Willie Dixon) 1962

|
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.
