You Can’t Judge a Book by Looking at the Cover

Willie Dixon

[Verse 1]
You can't judge an apple by lookin' at a tree
You can't judge honey by lookin' at the bee
You can't judge a daughter by lookin' at the mother
You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover

[Chorus]
Oh, can't you see
Oh, you misjudge me
I look like a farmer
But I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover, oh

[Bridge]
Oh, come on in closer, baby
Hear what else I gotta say!
You got your radio turned down too low
Turn it up!
Ow!

[Verse 2]
You can't judge sugar by lookin' at the cane
You can't judge a woman by lookin' at her man
You can't judge a sister by lookin' at her brother
You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover

[Chorus]
Oh, can't you see
Oh, you misjudge me
I look like a farmer
But I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover, come on
Ah, how am I doin', baby?
Yeah

[Verse 3]
You can't judge a fish by lookin' in the pond
You can't judge right from lookin' at the wrong
You can't judge one by lookin' at the other
You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover

[Outro]
Oh, can't you see
Oh, you can't judge me
Play like a farmer
But I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover
