A-Tisket, A-Tasket Lyrics

A-tisket, a-tasket
A brown and yellow basket
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 trucking on down the avenue
Without 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 shall die

Was it red?
No, no, no, no
Was it green?
No, no, no, no
Was it blue?
No, no, no, no
Just a little yellow basket

Well, I say, Sonny, I wouldn't cry about that!

But she took it, she took it
My little yellow basket
And if she doesn't bring it back
I think that I shall die
