Il testo della A-tisket a-tasket

(words and music by ella fitzgerald and van alexander)
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
