You Can’t Judge a Book by the Cover Patti LaBelle

You can't judge an apple by lookin' at the tree
Can't judge 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

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

You can't judge sugar by lookin' at the cane
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

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

You can't judge a fish by lookin' in the bowl
Can't judge right by lookin' to the wrong
Can't judge a-one by lookin' to the other
You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover
