Lyrics for 'A Tisket, A Tasket'

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 girl, she picked it up,
And put it in her pocket.

Her pocket, her pocket,
She put it in her pocket.
A little girl, she picked it up,
And put it in her pocket.
