"Can't Judge A Book By Its Cover"
(originally by Bo Diddley)

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 mother by looking at her daughter
And you can't judge a book by looking at the cover

No, can't you see, uh
That you've misjudged me
See, I may look like a hater but I'm a lover
No, you can't judge a book by looking at the cover, no

You can't judge sugar by looking at the cane
And you can't judge a woman by looking at her man
And you can't judge a sister by looking at her brother
And you can't judge a book by looking at the cover

No, can't you see, ooh
You've misjudged me, heh
See, I may look like a hater but uh, I'm a lover
No, you can't judge a book by looking at the cover, no

Can't judge me, no

You can't judge a fish by looking at 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

No, can't you see, ooh
You can't judge me, no
See, I may look like a hater but uh, I'm just a lover
I may look like a hater but uh, I am a lover
I may look like a hater but uh, I'm a lover
No, you can't judge a book by looking at the cover, no
Yeah
