All Writ Down
Incredible String Band

I fully understood

That you'd leave when your ship come by

And l fully understood

You had a purpose more high

Than to give a little schoolboy

To give a little schoolboy his first love

But oh, did I cry and did I cry

For I thought that those days would just fade and die

But every cell in my body has it all writ down

Every smile and every frown

And oh those good-time girls, oh, those good-time girls

That book it sometimes makes me glad

That book it sometimes makes me sad

But oh, it don't read bad, oh, it don't read bad

I cursed you to your face

When you turned to go

But I see now that you did just right

And I bow to you low

For you gave a little schoolboy

You gave a little schoolboy his first love

But oh, did I cry and did I cry

For I thought that those days would just fade and die

But every cell in my body has it all writ down
Every smile and every frown

And oh those good-time girls, oh, those good-time girls

That book it sometimes makes me glad

That book it sometimes makes me sad

But oh, it don't read bad, oh, it don't read bad

And oh, it don't read bad
