A-tisket, a-tasket |
|
A brown and yellow basket |
|
I sent a letter to my mommy |
|
On the way i dropped it |
|
I dropped it, i dropped it |
|
Yes on the way i dropped it |
|
A little girlie picked it up |
|
And put it in her pocket |
|
She was truckin' on down the avenue |
|
Not a single thing to do |
|
She went pick pick pick' all around |
|
When she spied it on the ground |
|
She took it, she took it, |
|
My little yellow basket |
|
And if she doesn't bring it back |
|
I think that i will die |
|
A-tisket, a-tasket |
|
I lost my yellow basket |
|
And if that girlie don't return it |
|
Don't know what i'll do |
|
Oh dear, i wonder where my basket can be? |
|
(so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we) |
|
Oh gee, i wish that little girl i could see |
|
(so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we) |
|
Oh why was i so careless with that basket of mine |
|
That itty-bitty basket was a joy of mine |
|
A-tisket, a-tasket, |
|
I lost my yellow basket |
|
Won't someone help me find my basket |
|
And make me happy again, again! |
|
(was it green?) |
|
No, no, no, no |
|
(was it red?) |
|
No, no, no, no |
|
(was it blue?) |
|
No, no, no, no |
|
Just a little yellow basket |
|
A little yellow basket |
