You Can't Judge A Book lyrics

You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover No, you can't judge a man by looking at the cover And You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover When I was young and went to school My mama taught me the magic rule And what she said I tried my best to follow She said You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover No, you can't judge a man by looking at the cover And You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover Then I left school and moved around And what I saw and what I found Made me remember what she said to follow She said You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover No, you can't judge a man by looking at the cover And You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover And now I think, by now I'd know, that what appears is not always so And I remember what she said to follow She said You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover No, you can't judge a man by looking at the cover And You Can't Judge a Book by looking at the cover
