Oh the shark babe has such teeth, dear
And he shows them pearly white
Just a jack-knife has ol' MacHeath, babe
And he keeps it out of sight
You know when that shark bites with his teeth, dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves though wears ol' MacHeath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red
On the sidewalk, oh Sunday morning don't you know
Lies a body just oozing life
And someone's sneaking around the corner
Could that be our boy Mack the knife?
From a tug boat down by the river don't you know
There's a cement bag just dropping on down
That cement's there, it's there for the weight, dear
Five will get you ten ol' Mack. He's back in town
D'you hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, baby
After drawing out all his hard-earned cash
And now MacHeath spends, he spends just like a—like a sailor
Could it be, could it be, could it be our boy's done something rash?
Now, Jenny Diver oh Sukey Tawdry
Look out Miss Lotte Lenya and ole Lucy Brown
Yeah the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Mack is back in town
I said Jenny Diver oh Sukey Tawdry
Look out Miss Lotte Lenya and ole Lucy Brown
Yeah the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Mack is back in town
Look out ol' Macky is back, wow!
