Fitzgerald Ella A Tisket A Tasket lyrics

A-tisket a-tasket
A brown-and-yellow basket
I send a letter to my mommie
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
Without a single thing to do
She was peck, peck, peckin` all around
When she spied it on the ground

She took it, she took it
My 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
I don`t know what I`ll do

(Was it red?) No, no, no, no
(Was it brown?) No, no, no, no
(Was it blue?) No, no, no, no
Just a little yellow basket
