Oh the shark has pretty teeth dear

And it shows them pearly white

Just a jackknife has MacHeath babe

And it keeps it way out of sight

When that shark bites with his teeth dear

Scarlet billows begin to spread

Fancy gloves wears old MacHeath babe

So there's never never a trace of red

On the sidewalk one Sunday mornin

Lies a body oozin' life

Someone's sneakin' round that corner

Could that someone be Mack the Knife

Oh there's a tugboat down down by the river dontcha know

Where a cement bag's just a'drooppin' on down

That cement's there it's there for the weight dear

Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town

Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller He disappeared babe

After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash

Now MacHeath spends he spends like a sailor

Could that boy have done somethin' rash

Ahhhh Jenny Diver ho Sukey Tawdry

Ooh Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Oh the line forms on the right babe

Now that Macky's back in town

I said Jenny Diver whoa Sukey Tawdry

Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Oh the line forms on the right babe

Now that Macky's back in town

Look out old Macky is back
