[Verse 1]
You can't judge an apple by lookin' at the 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, baby
Oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Well, 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
You misjudge me
Well, I look like a farmer
But I'm a lover
Can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover, yeah
I say
Oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Well, you can't judge a fish by lookin' at the pond
You can't judge a right from lookin' at the wrong
You can't judge a one by lookin' at the other
You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover

[Outro]
Oh, can't you see
Whoa, you can't judge me
I look like a farmer
But I'm a lover
You can't judge a book by lookin' at the cover, baby
Look at the cover
You can't judge me
Yeah, you can't judge me
I said, you can't judge me
Never, no, you can't judge me
I said, you can't judge me
