A-tisket A-tasket
A brown and yellow basket I send a letter to my mommy 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 put it in her pocket SHE WAS TRUCKIN ON DOWN THE AVENUE Not a single thing to do She went peck peck pecking all around When she spied it on the ground She took it She took it My little yellow basket And if she doesn't bring it back I think that I will die A-tisket A-tasket I lost my yellow basket And if the girlie don't return it Don't know know what I'll do Oh dear I wonder where my basket can be (So do we, so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we) Oh gee I wish that little girl I could see (So do we, so do we, so do we, so do we, so do we) Oh why was I so careless with that basket of mine? That itty bitty basket was a joy of mine! A-tisket A-tasket I lost my yellow basket Won't someone help me find my basket And make me happy again? (Was it green?) No, no, no, no (Was it red?) No, no, no, no (Was it blue?) No, no, no, no Just a little yellow basket A little yellow basket |

Why do you grieve?
Try and believe Life is always sunshine When the heart beats true Banish your fears Smile through your tears When you're sad It makes me feel the same as you... Come to me my melancholy baby Cuddle up and don't be blue All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe You know, dear, that I'm in love with you; Every cloud must have a silver lining Wait until the sun shines through Come on and smile, my honey dear, While I kiss away each tear Or else I shall be melancholy too... |

Goodnight my love, the tired old moon is descending,
Goodnight my love, my moment with you now is ending. It was so heavenly, holding you close to me, It will be heavenly to hold you again in a dream, The stars above have promised to meet us tomorrow, Til then, my love, how dreary the new day will seem, So for the present dear, we'll have to part, Sleep tight my love, goodnight my love, Remember that you're my sweetheart. |

First you say you do
And then you don't And then you say you will And then you won't You're undecided now So what are you gonna do? Now you want to play And then it's no And when you say you'll stay That's when you go You're undecided now So what are you gonna do? I've been sitting on a fence And it doesn't make much sense 'Cause you keep me in suspense And you know it Then you promise to return When you don't I really burn Well, I guess I'll never learn And I show it If you've got a heart And if you're kind Then don't keep us apart Make up your mind You're undecided now So what are you gonna do? |

I Got A Guy
Chick Webb & his Orchestra v Ella Fitzgerald (1937) I got a guy He don't dress me in sable He looks nothing like Gable But he's mine And I think he's too divine I got a guy When he starts into pet me He's the sauce on spaghetti He's the kind that you can't keep off you mind I got a guy And he's tough He's just a gem in the rough But when I polish him up I swear, he'll be a Tiffany solitaire I'm riding high 'Cos I'm happy and carefree There is nothing can scare me 'Cos I got a guy I got a guy And he's tough He's just a gem in the rough But when I polish him up I swear, he'll be a Tiffany solitaire I'm riding high 'Cos I'm happy and carefree There is nothing can scare me 'Cos I got a guy |

They call it wacky dust
It's from a hot cornet It gives your feet a feeling so breezy And oh, it's so easy to get They call it wacky dust It brings a dancing jag And once it starts, then only a Sap'll refuse to Big Apple or Shag Oh I don't know just why it gets you so high Putting a buzz in you heart You'll do a marathon you'll wanna go on Kickin' the ceilin' apart They call it wacky dust It's something you can't trust And in the end the rhythm will stop When it does, then you'll drop From happy wacky dust Oh we don't know just why it gets you so high Putting a buzz in you heart You'll do a marathon you'll wanna go on Kickin' the ceilin' apart They call it wacky dust, yeah It's something you can't trust And in the end the rhythm will stop When it does, then you'll drop From happy wacky The rhythm will stop When it does, then you'll drop From happy wacky dust |

We're sitting out here on the runway,
Waiting for the plane to leave, And the captain says, "There'll be a short delay, Bear with me please," They gave us the usual hassle, "You can't take those guitars on board," But the boys in the band just smiled, Heard it all before, And as they're starting to serve champagne, To the folks at the front of the plane, I can hear the engines roaring, we're on our way, And we are flying home, I feel the freedom in my soul, Flying home at last; Flying home, I've got the freedom in my soul, And it's four in the morning, My world is calling, Speeding through the universe tonight... The movie reminds of my lady, As she waits, "where are those guys?" Yes it's nice to see old Butch and Sundance in the sky, And now the sun is beginning to rise, It's like looking down on Paradise, There's a ball of fire that's burning, giving life, And we are flying home, I feel the freedom in my soul, Flying home at last; Flying home, I've got the freedom in my soul, And it's four in the morning, My world is calling, Speeding through the universe tonight... |

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune Somewhere there's heaven How high the moon There is no moon above When love is far away too Till it comes true That you love me as I love you Somewhere there's music It's where you are Somewhere there's heaven How near, how far The darkest night would shine If you would come to me soon Until you will, how still my heart How high the moon How high the moon is the name of this song How high the moon Though the words may be wrong We're singing it Because you ask for it So we're swinging it just for you How high the moon Does it touch the stars How high the moon Does it reach up to Mars Though the words may be wrong to this song We're asking how high, high, high high, high is the moon Boo bi yoo bi Bi yu di di ooh dun dabba oohbee Boo di yoo di Di yu di dee dee doohdun di di oohnbee Bu di yu dan dan dan Dee boognbee Aheedee doo doo abbi woo do ee Woah ba bee ba bap beya oh Ein bap bap dein Hey ohndalady deepbap bumblebee Deedeedeedeedee deedee Doo doot doop antdoodly wah Vebeeoopm dabba oohbayoum dabie oohmbappa eupembappi ah Baby ohm bap Baby ooh bee bap bey Oohtoo undn datley udnda da Eun bu! eun bi! un ba! un bey! un bey un bey in byron bay Moody eetn deeby deepi ah ba Beebeeoohdibap Da Bap! un boo bay Deeoohdedootundap lah day Oohtdee undeedoodee dootn dadaploday Beepbee oo'bapbee ootndap bobay beepbee ootn da loday a dooblydoobly dooblydoobly dooblydoobly dooblydoobly dooblydeetn deepdeedee eudabapoya Beebeeum beep beebee bebop Beebeeoohbebap dedap un boobay Deeodeedoodee dap lady Oohtdee undeedoodee dootn dadaploday Beepbee oo'bapbee ootndap bobay beepbee ootn da loday Deudedeu deun daudau baubau bieubau badee beiu beiu ooh Heee he a we ah Heee he a eeah hah Eeetdee eutandabbie utan dooiedoodoon'lyba Bieu bau bau n daisy ba Beedeedee dedee deDee Beedeedee ba-oi Adoodlyoohtndo oohntdo oohntdo Deedee oothndo baobaobao baeu Beet-deet-dee doodly'ap'n'boobie Bootbe up'n babba un baw baw ba-bey Beedeedee yabadoreda bababo Baya baba bobobo bi'yabeeba Though the words may be wrong to this song We hope to make high, high, high, high High as the moon |

Left New York this morning early
Traveling south so wide and high Sailing through the wide blue yonder It's that air mail special on the fly Listen to the motors humming She is streaking through the sky Like a bird that's flying homeward It's that air mail special on the fly Over plains and high dark mountains Over rivers deep and wide Carrying mail to California It's that air mail special on the fly Watch her circle for the landing Hear her moan and cough and sigh Now she's coming down the runway It's that air mail special on the fly |
