"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, I dropped it,
And on the way I dropped it.
A little boy picked it up
And put it in his pocket!"

 

Another version

"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, I dropped it
Yes, on the way I dropped it
A little girlie picked it up
And took it to the market.

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.

A-tisket a-tasket
She took my yellow basket
And if she doesn't bring it back
I think that I shall die.

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, I dropped it
Yes, on the way I dropped it
A little girlie picked it up
And took it to the market.

(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."
