Lyrics and translation The Yardbirds - You Can't Judge a Book by Looking at the Cover (Live - 2015 Remaster)

You Can't Judge a Book by Looking at the Cover (Live - 2015 Remaster)

You can′t judge an apple by looking at the tree

Tu ne peux pas juger une pomme en regardant l'arbre

You can't judge honey by looking at the bee

Tu ne peux pas juger le miel en regardant l'abeille

You can′t judge a daughter by looking at the mother

Tu ne peux pas juger une fille en regardant la mère

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

Tu ne peux pas juger un livre en regardant la couverture

Oh can't you see

Oh ne vois-tu pas

Oh, well, you misjudge me

Oh, eh bien, tu me juges mal

I look like a farmer

Je ressemble à un fermier

But I′m a lover

Mais je suis un amoureux

Can′t judge a book by looking at the cover

Tu ne peux pas juger un livre en regardant la couverture

Yeah, that's right

Oui, c'est vrai

That′s so good

C'est tellement bon

You can't judge a fish by lookin′ in the pond

Tu ne peux pas juger un poisson en regardant dans l'étang

You can't judge right by looking at the wrong

Tu ne peux pas juger le bien en regardant le mal

You can′t judge one by looking at the other

Tu ne peux pas juger l'un en regardant l'autre

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

Tu ne peux pas juger un livre en regardant la couverture

Oh can't you see

Oh ne vois-tu pas

Oh, well, you misjudge me

Oh, eh bien, tu me juges mal

I look like a farmer

Je ressemble à un fermier

But I′m a lover

Mais je suis un amoureux

Can′t judge a book by looking at the cover

Tu ne peux pas juger un livre en regardant la couverture

You can't judge sugar by looking at the cane

Tu ne peux pas juger le sucre en regardant la canne

You can′t judge a woman by looking at her man

Tu ne peux pas juger une femme en regardant son homme

You can't judge a sister by looking at her brother

Tu ne peux pas juger une sœur en regardant son frère

You can′t judge a book by looking at the cover

Tu ne peux pas juger un livre en regardant la couverture

Oh can't you see

Oh ne vois-tu pas

Oh, well, you misjudge me

Oh, eh bien, tu me juges mal

I look like a farmer

Je ressemble à un fermier

But I′m a lover

Mais je suis un amoureux

Can't judge a book by looking at the cover

Tu ne peux pas juger un livre en regardant la couverture
