A-Tisket, A-Tasket Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald with Chick Webb and His Orchestra

A-Tisket A-Tasket
A green and yellow basket
I bought a basket for 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 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
(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
