Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
Ya know when that shark bites with his teeth dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves oh wears old MacHeath babe
So there's never never a trace of red
[Verse 2]
Now on the sidewalk, mmm yeah, ooh, Sunday morning, uh huh
Lies a body just oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the knife
[Verse 3]
There's a tugboat, ya know there is, way down by the river don't you know
Where a cement bag's just a hangin' on down
Oh the cement is there it's there for the weight dear
Five'll get you ten brother Mack is back in town
And 'bout Louie Miller, mmm hmm, he did disappear, dear
After drawing out all of his hard earned cash
And now MacHeath spends, he spends like a sailor
Could it be our boy's done somethin' rash
[Verse 4]
Oh Jenny Diver, you know Sukey Tawdry
Oh Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
You know the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town
[Verse 5]
Yeah, Jenny Diver, yes you know Sukey Tawdry
Look out to miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
You know the line forms, it forms on the right babe
Now that Macky's back in town
Look out old Macky is back
