Lyrics A Tisket - a Tasket - The Ink Spots




A tisket, a tasket
A brown and yellow basket
I send a letter to my mammy
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 went truckin' on down the avenue
Without a single thing to do
She went peck, peck, peckin' all around
'Til 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
Yeah!
A tisket, a Tasket
A brown and yellow basket
I send a letter to my mammy
On the way, I dropped it
Alls I wonder where my basket can be
(So do we, so do we, so do we, so do we}
Won't somebody get my basket for me
(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, witty, bitty, busy, all sounds alike
A tisket, a biscuit
Lost my yellow basket
Won't somebody find my basket
Make me happy again
(Was it red?) no baby-do, no no
(Was it green?) no baby-do, no no
(Was it blue?) no baby-do, no no
Just a little ole yellow basket
A little yellow basket
