Tisket A Tasket, A
Song Lyrics & Words
A-tisket, a-tasket,
A green and yellow basket.
I wrote a letter to my love,
But on the way I dropped it.
I dropped it, I dropped it,
And, on the way I dropped it.
A little boy picked it up,
And put it in his pocket.
Alternative Lyrics & Words
A tisket,a tasket
A green and yellow basket.
I wrote a letter to my love
And on the way i dropped it,
I dropped it,
Yes on the way i dropped.
Another Version
A Tisket, A Tasket
I've lost my yellow basket,
A little girlie picked it up
and put it in her pocket
She took it,She took it,
My little yellow basket
And if she doesn't bring it back,
I think that I shall cry
Long Version
She was truckin’ on down the avenue
Without a single thing to do
She went peck, peck, peckin’ all around
When she spied in 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 small DANCE)
***********************************************
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 the joy of mine
A tisket A tasket
I lost my yellow basket
Won’t some one 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!!!!!
