Now don't put all your dreams in one basket. Don't put all your hope in one heart Fie if you discover That she loves another You'll be licked before you start. Now don't put all your dreams in one basket. Love is such a fragile thing And if you should break it Are you sure you can take it? How would your heart forget to sing? Don't put all your dreams in one basket. Don't upset your applecart. She may think she's clever And leave you forever. Then what will you tell your heart? So don't put your dreams in one basket. Best made plans may go astray If you play for hard stakes You might play with heartaches Never throw your dreams away Never throw your dreams away.
