My transcription of the recording at YouTube:


I TOLD THEM ALL ABOUT YOU
As sung by Donald Peers*

I told the whippoorwill,
Told the daffodil,
How pretty you smile.
I told them all about you.
I told each little bird
Every single word
You say is worthwhile.
Yes, I told them all about you.
I told the sun and every star that shines above
About the way you roll your eyes and how you love.
Told my mam and dad.
They're mighty glad.
Told the preacher man too.
Yes, I told them all about you.

I told the little frog
Sitting on the log
Down by the big blue ocean.
The fishes and the whales
Waggled their tails,
Caused a big commotion.
Told the little crickets
Jumping in the thickets.
They started to sing their song.
The old church bell
Went "Well, well, well!
Ding dong! It won't be long."
Walking through the zoo,
Telling all I knew,
Something made(?) me dizzy.
There in the park
I heard the stork
Say, "Boys, I'll soon get busy."
The whole world knows it's true.
I'm in love with you.

Told the shady nook.
Told the babbling brook.
Told the man in the moon.
I told them all about you.
I told each little bird
Every single word
You say is worthwhile.
Yes, I told them all about you.
I've told the sun and every star that there was to tell.
I even told the sexton; he tolled the bell!
Told my mam and dad
And they're mighty glad.
Told the preacher man too.
Yes, I told them all about you.
Yes, I told them, told them all about you.
