Heigh ho, Silver, oh that ain't in it
That itty bitty basket
And if she doesn't bring it back
(So do we, so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we)
Oh gee, I wonder where my basket can be
I lost my yellow basket
Oh, why was I so careless
Make me happy again, again?
Was it blue? No
And put it in her pocket
Won't someone help me find my basket
Was it red? No, no, no, no
Yes, on the way, I dropped it
Tisket, tasket
A little girlie picked it up
Have you seen her over there?
A-tisket, A-tasket
Oh dear, I wish that little girl I could see
I think that I will die
I lost my yellow basket
(So do we, so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we)
Just a little yellow basket
Don't know what I'll do
I dropped it, I dropped it
My little yellow basket
[Incomprehensible]
Was a joy of mine
With not a single thing to do
She took it, she took it
She was truckin' on down the avenue
Was it green? No, no, no, no
When she spied it on the ground
On the way I dropped it
And if that girlie don't return it
She went peck, peck, pecking all around
Have you seen it over there?
I send a letter to my mommy
With that basket of mine?
