1: you can't judge a apple by lookin' at the tree.

Can't judge a honey by lookin' at the bee.

Can't judge a daughter by lookin' at the mother.

You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover.

Chorus: oh-oh, can't you see? you misjudged me, baby!

I look like a farmer but--i'm a lover!

Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover.

2: you can't judge sugar by lookin' at the pan.

Can't judge a woman by lookin' at her man.

Can't judge one by lookin' at the other.

You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover.

Chorus: oh-oh, can't you see? you misjudged me!

I look like a farmer but--i'm a lover!

Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover.

3: you can't judge a fish by lookin' in the pond.

Can't judge right by lookin' at the wrong,

Can't judge a-one by lookin' at the other.

You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover.

Chorus: oh-oh, can't you see? you misjudged me!

I look like a farmer but--i'm a lover!

Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover.

4: can't judge a apple by lookin' at the tree, baby.

Can't judge honey by lookin' at the bee.

Can't judge a daughter by lookin' at the mother.

You can't a book by lookin' at the cover.

Chorus: oh-oh, can't you see? you misjudged me!

I look like a farmer but--i'm a lover!

Can't judge a book a-by lookin' at the cover.
