You Can't Tell a Book By the Cover
Now, you can't tell the honey, babe, lookin' at the bee
You can't tell an apple lookin' at the tree
Can't tell the sister lookin' at the brother
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
SOLO
Now, you can't judge the sugar lookin' in the cane
You can't tell a woman lookin' at her man
Can't judge a father lookin' at the brother
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Now, you can't tell the fish lookin' in the pond
You can't judge a right lookin' at the wrong
Can't judge the one lookin' at the other
Can't judge a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Now, you can't judge the sugar lookin' in the cane
You can't tell a woman lookin' at her man
Can't judge a moth
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
You can't tell an apple lookin' at the tree
Can't tell the sister lookin' at the brother
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
SOLO
Now, you can't judge the sugar lookin' in the cane
You can't tell a woman lookin' at her man
Can't judge a father lookin' at the brother
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Now, you can't tell the fish lookin' in the pond
You can't judge a right lookin' at the wrong
Can't judge the one lookin' at the other
Can't judge a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Now, you can't judge the sugar lookin' in the cane
You can't tell a woman lookin' at her man
Can't judge a moth
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
Baby can't you see how you misjudged me
I may look like a farmer, baby, but I'm a lover
Can't tell a book lookin' at the cover
