Mack the Knife

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear

And it shows them pearly white

Just a jackknife has MacHeath, babe

And it keeps it way out of sight

When that shark bites with his teeth, dear

Scarlet billows begin to spread

Fancy gloves, wears old MacHeath, babe

So there's never, never a trace of redOn the sidewalk, one Sunday mornin

Lies a body oozin' life

Someone's sneakin' round that corner

Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

Oh there's a tugboat down, down by the river dontcha know

Where a cement bag's just a'drooppin' on down

That cement's there, it's there for the weight, dear

Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town

Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe

After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash

Now MacHeath spends, he spends like a sailor

Could that boy have done somethin' rash?Ahhhh Jenny Diver, ho, Sukey Tawdry

Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, babe

Now that Macky's back in town

I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry

Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, babe

Now that Macky's back in town

Look out, old Macky is back!
