Oh the shark babe'
Has such teeth dear
And it shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, there
And he keeps it out of sight
You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though wears old MacHeath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red
On the sidewalk
Oh, Sunny morning
Lies a body just oozin' life
And someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?
There's a tugboat
Ooh down by the river,don't you know?
Where a cement bag just drooping on down
Oh that cement just
It's their for the weight,dear
Five'll will get you ten dear, Old Mack he is back in town
Now did you hear about Louie Miller?
Oh he disappeared babe
After drawing out all his hard earned cash
And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor
Could it be our boy done something rash?
I said Jenny Diver, Oh, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya, and Old Lucy Brown
Now that line forms, on the right, babe
Now, that Macky's, he's back in town
I said, "Jenny Diver, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and Old Lucy Brown"
Yes that line forms way on the right, babe
Now, that Macky's back in town
Look out, Old Macky's is back
