Oh, the shark, babe,
has such teeth, dear

And it shows them
pearly white
Just a iackknife has old
MacHeath, babe

And he keeps it,
out of sight
Ya know when that shark
bites with his teeth, babe

Scarlet billows start
to spread
Fancy gloves, though,
wears old MacHeath, babe

80 there's never,
never a trace of red
Now on the sidewalk,
whoa sunny morning,

Lies a body just oozin' life,
And someone's sneakin'
around the corner

Could that someone
be Mack the Knife?
Where a cement bag's
just a'drooppin' on down

Oh, that cement is just,
Where a cement bag's
just a'drooppin' on down

Oh, that cement is just,
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

And now MacHeath spends
just like a sailor
Could it be our boy's

done somethin' rash?
Now Jenny Diver,
yeah, 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
Oh, the line forms
on the right, babe

Now that Macky's back
in town
I said Jenny Diver, whoa,
Sukey Tawdry

Look out to Miss Lotte
Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Yes, that line forms
on the right, babe

Now that Macky's back
in town
Look out,
Old Macky's back!!

Now that Macky's back
in town
Look out,
Old Macky's backl!
