Lyrics:
♬You can’t judge sugar looking at the cane
You can’t judge a woman looking at her man
You can’t judge one by looking at the other
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover
can’t you see
Oh you misjudge me
I look like a farmer
But I’m a lover
No, you can’t judge a book by looking at the cover
You can’t judge a fish by looking in the pond
You can’t judge right from looking at the wrong
You can’t judge a daughter by looking at the mother
Oh can’t you see
You misjudge me
I look like a farmer
But I’m a lover
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover
My feet are running but my soul is plantedon the ground
Break the labels down
Make them hear my sound
Can’t judge a book♬
Let nothing stop you.

Hello Sungyoung. Would you be able to provide a link or links to more info on the singer called The Tracks, or a link to him on iTunes or Amazon Music? If I’m not mistaken, he’s the second singer in this version of the commercial posted on this page. I’ve tried every way I can think of to Google info on him… “The Tracks”, “singer The Tracks”, “The Tracks singer Mastercard”… no good. So frustrating! 🙁
Thanks in advance for the help.
The second singer on this video above..is the East L.A. band called The Tracks. If you google “east l.a. band called the tracks” you should find it…band members are Jimmy Conde, Johnny Santana, Felipe Contreras and Venancio Bermudez.
The ad campaign is disgusting. Not now nor ever would I use your product.
Wow Cindy. If you don’t want to use a MasterCard that’s fine. But how can you say not judging something or someone by outward appearances is disgusting?? I think you may be confused.
Cindy,…get help..LoL
Cindy was not able to qualify for a master card was the issue…
I live in van down by the river….cindy?
