A Tisket, A Tasket — testo e origine
Stati Unitiinglese
“A tisket, a tasket, a green and yellow basket.”
Sono canzoni senza un unico autore, plasmate nel corso delle generazioni da tutti quelli che le hanno cantate. Le parole scivolano da una regione all’altra, le strofe si aggiungono o si perdono, e così la versione che una famiglia canta è spesso, in modo sottile, tutta sua.
