Oh, the shark, has pretty teeth, dear
And it shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, dear And he keeps it out of sight When that shark bites, with his teeth, dear Scarlet billows start to spread Fancy gloves, though, wears MacHeath, dear So there's not a trace, mmm of red On the sidewalk Sunday mornin', baby Lies a body just oozin' life Someone's sneakin' around the corner Is the someone Mack the Knife? From a tugboat by the river A cement bag's drooppin' down Yeah, the cement's just for the weight, dear Bet you Mack, he's back in town Looky here Louie Miller, disappeared, dear After drawing out his cash And MacHeath spends like a sailor Did our boy do somethin' rash? Sukey, Tawdry, Jenny Diver Lotte Lenya, sweet Lucy Brown Oh, the line forms on the right, dear Now that Mack, he's back in town Take it, Satch |
