Mack The Knife

Mack the Knife - Peggy Lee

Written by：Bertolt Brecht/Marc Blitzstein/Kurt Weill

Oh the shark has

Pretty teeth dear

And he shows them

Pearly whites

Just a jackknife

Has macheath dear

And he keeps it

Out of sight

When the shark bites

With his teeth dear

Scarlet billows start to spread

Fancy gloves though

Wears macheath dear

So there's not

A trace of red

On the sidewalk

Sunday morning

Lies a body

Oozin' life

Someone's sneakin'

'Round the corner

Is that someone

Mack the knife

From a tugboat

By the river

A cement bag's

Dropping down

The cement′s just

For the weight dear

Bet you Mack is

Back in town

And Louie Miller

Disappeared dear

After drawin' out

His cash

And macheath spends

Like a sailor

Did our boy do

Somethin' rash

Sukey Tawdry

Jenny Diver

Polly Peachum

Lucy Brown

Oh the line forms

On the right dear

Now that Macky's back in town
