1. Oh, the shark babe has such teeth dear,
and he shows them, pearly white.
Just a jack knife has old MacHeath babe,
and he keeps it out of sight.
2. You know when that shark bites, with his teeth, dear.
Scarlet billows start to spread
And fancy gloves though has old MacHeath babe,
So there's never, never a trace of red.
3. On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning, don't you know
lies a body, just oozin' life.
And someone's sneaking 'round the corner,
Could that be our boy Mack the Knife?
4. From a tugboat, down by the river don´t ya know,
There´s a cement bag just dropping on down.
That cement there is there for the weight dear
Five will get you ten old Mackie's back in town.
5. Dear Louis Miller, he disappeared babe,
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?
6. Hey, Jenny Diver, oh Sookie Taudry,
Look out Miss Mary Lennor, oh Lucy Brown
Here the line forms, on the right babe.
Now that MacHeath's, back in town.
7. I say Jenny Diver, oh Sookie Taudry,
Look out Miss Mary Lennor, and oh Lucy Brown
Here the line forms, on the right babe.
Now that MacHeath's, back in town.
*: Look out old MacHeath is back!
