Some judge a man by the way he shakes a hand
And if he looks a man in the eyes
By the way he treats his tools

The way he treats a fool
And the things that he can buy
His shoes, how they shine

All that I admit

I judge a man by the woman

And her smile, the light in her eyes
The way she holds him when they dance
She's the window to his soul

His best friend, don't you know
You judge the day by the sun
But you judge a man by the woman


You can spend all day watching work and play
Get to know his habits and his friends

Learn what makes him laugh, pry into his past
Find out what makes him cry and makes him sin
You might think you can right through

Oh, but the best thing you can do

Is judge a man by the woman

And her smile, the light in her eyes
The way she holds him when they dance
She's the window to his soul

His best friend, don't you know
You judge the day by the sun
But you judge a man by the woman


[Instrumental Interlude]


Judge a man by the woman
And her smile or the light in her eyes
The way she holds him when they dance

She's the window to his soul
His best friend, don't you know
You judge the day by the sun

But you judge a man by the woman
You judge a man by the woman
