Ella Fitzgerald - I Found My Yellow Basket

Do you remember when I sang "a-tisket"
"And a-tasket, I lost my basket"?
(Oh, yes we did, we're sorry that you lost it)
(We don't pay no cost of it)
(Do you?)

Oh, no you don't have to
I've got good news for you
Just listen while I tell you of a dream come true

I found my yellow basket
Oh yes, I really did
I found the girl who took it
I knew just where she hid

She said that she was sorry
And gave it back to me
Now, I'm oh so happy
Happy as can be

Are you happy? (Mmh-mh)
Happy? (Mmh-mh)
I'm so happy I don't know just what to do

And now I'm on my way
Feelin' light and gay
A-tisket, a-tasket
I found my yellow basket

Tisket
Tasket
Tisket
Pa, pa-la, pa-la-la
Pa, pa-la, pa-la-la-la-la

I'm so happy (oh, we bet you are)
So happy (oh, we bet you are)
I'm so happy I don't know just what to do

And now I'm on my way
Feelin' light and gay
A-tisket, a-tasket
I found my yellow basket

Tisket, I'm on my way
Tisket, I'm on my way
Tisket, I'm on my way with my basket
