You Can’t Judge a Book by the Cover Songtext
von Bo Diddley
You Can’t Judge a Book by the Cover Songtext
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.
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.
