A Tisket, A Tasket (Album Version)

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 But not a single thing to do She went peck peck pecking 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 Oh gee I wish that little girl I could see 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
