Oldies obsessed - You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover by Bo Diddley

"You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover" is a song by Bo Diddley, one of THE rock and roll pioneers. It came out in 1962 and has been covered by many other great artists ever since.

You can't judge an apple by looking at the tree,

You can't judge honey by looking at the bee,

You can't judge a daughter by looking at the mother,

You can't judge a book by looking at the cover.

Oh can't you see, oh, well, you misjudged me.

I look like a farmer but I'm a lover,

Can't judge a book by looking at the cover.

Yeah, that's right,

That's so good.
