Mack the Knife Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, the shark has a perfect tooth-act
He likes to show the pearly whites
A jackknife has old Macheath
And he keeps it out of sight

[Verse 2]
The shark bites with her teeth, sir
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves has old Macheath
And there's never a trace of red

[Verse 3]
Out on the sidewalk on Sunday morning
Ah, a body oozing life
Creeping 'round the corner
I wonder if that someone is Mack the Knife?

[Verse 4]
Hey, a tugboat went down on the river
There's a cement bag a-drooping on down
'Cause that cement is there for the weight, dear
Five'll get ya ten then Mr. Mackie's back in town

[Verse 5]
Did ya hear about Louie Miller? Huh, disappeared
After drawing out all his hard-earned cash
And it's Macheath spending like a sailor
You think that boy did something rash?

[Verse 6]
Jenny Diver, Suki Tawdry
Lookout (Miss) Lotte Lenya and Miss Lucy Brown
Come on, the line forms on the right (Right)
Now that Mackie's back in town

[Verse 7]
Jenny Diver, Louis Armstrong
Bobby Darin and yours truly, yeah
They got this act down there on Rampart Street
'Cause we all think that maybe Mackie's back
Shh, Mackie is back
