Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I Told Them All about You (Cliff Friend)
Here is my transcription of Arthel 'Doc' Watson and David 'Dawg' Grisman's version of All About You on the album DOC & DAWG (1997)
I told the daffodils
I told the whippoorwills
just how pretty you smile
Yes I told 'em all about you
I told each little bird
every little single word
that you say is worthwhile
Yes I told 'em all about you
I told the moon and every little star that shines above
about the way you roll your pretty eyes
and how you love
Each little honeybee
knows there's gonna be
a honeymoon for two
Yes I told 'em all about you
