You Can't Tell A Book By Its Cover Lyrics - Take A Little Walk With Me - Tom Rush

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
