You Can’t Judge a Book by Lookin’ at the Cover Songtext
von The Yardbirds

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 lookin′ 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
