1
Oh, the shark has pretty teeth dear
2
And he shows 'em, pearly white
3
Just a jack knife has Macheath dear
4
And he keeps it way out of sight
5
When that shark bites with his teeth, dear
6
Scarlet billows begin to spread
7
Fancy gloves though has Macheath dear
8
So there's never, never a trace of red
9
On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning
10
Lies a body, oozin' life
11
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
12
Could that someone be Mack the Knife
13
From a tugboat, on the river going slow
14
A cement bag is dropping on down
15
You know that cement is for the weight dear
16
You can make a large bet Mackie's back in town
17
My man Louis Miller, he split the scene babe
18
After drawing out all the bread from his stash
19
Now Macheath spends like a sailor
20
Do you suppose our boy, he's done something rash
21
Old Satchmo, Louis Armstrong, Bobby Darrin
22
Did this song nice, Lady Ella too
23
They all sang it, with so much feeling
24
That Old Blue Eyes, he ain't gonna add nothing new
25
But with his big band, jumping behind me
26
Swinging hard, Jack, I now I can't lose
27
When I tell you, all about Mack the Knife babe
28
It's an offer, you can never refuse
29
We got Patrick Williams, Bill Miller playing that piano
30
And this great big band, bringing up the rear
31
All the band cats, in this band now
32
They make the greatest sounds, you're never gonna hear
33
Oh Sookie Taudry, Jenny Diver, Polly Peachum, Old Miss Lulu Brown
34
Hey the line forms, on the right dear
35
Now that Macheath's back in town
36
You'd better lock your doors, and call the law
37
Because Macheath's back in town
