I once judged a book
By looking at the outside
I never even bothered to open it up
You were known as that book
I judged you wrong
I never even thought about giving you up
I'm not preaching to you
I'm not telling you what to do
Don't pass your judgment
Before the trial is through
Seems so easy to do
Like sitting around
And never even thinking about leaving you
You are faithful and true and thinking that she's
Just sitting at home thinking of you
I was so satisfied
You, baby cheated and lied
Don't pass your judgment before the trial is through
Keep your head up high
Don't let a lie
Don't let her catch you
Down on your knees
Boy, what would you do
What would you say
She'll treat you just like she treated me
I'm not preaching to you
Let that be a lesson to you
Don't pass your judgment
Before the trial is through
Before the trial is through
Before the trial is through
Before the trial is through
