A-tisket. a-tasket
A Green and yellow basket
I sent a letter to my mommy
And 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 thang to do
She was peck-peck-peckin all around
When she spied it on the ground

She took it she took it Yes on the way she took

And if she doesn't bring it back
I think that I shall die

(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
