Mack the Knife

Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear And it shows them pearly whites Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe And he keeps it out of sight You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe Scarlet billows start to spread Fancy gloves wears old MacHeath, babe So there's never, never a trace of red Now on the sidewalk, sunny morning Lies a body just oozin' life And someone's sneakin' 'round the corner Could that someone be oh Mack the Knife? There's a tugboat down by the river don'tcha know Where a cement bag's just a'droopin' on down Oh that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear Five'll get ya ten old Mack he's back in town Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor Could it be our boy's done somethin' rash? Now Jenny Diver, Sukey Tawdry Oooh Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Oh the line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town. Aah I said Jenny Diver, Sukey Tawdry Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Yes, that line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town Look out old Macky is back!
