MACK THE KNIFE (BIG BAND)

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

You know when the shark bites

With his teeth babe

Scarlet billows start to spread

Fancy gloves though wears old macheath babe

So there's never never a trace of red

Now on the sidewalk

Oh sunday morning

Lies a body just oozing life

Someone's sneaking round the corner

Could that someone be mack the knife

Theres a tug boat

Down by the river

Where a cement bags just a-drooping on down

Oh that cement is just it's there for the weight dear

Five will get you ten ol mackys back in town

Now dya hear about louis miller

He disappeared babe

After drawing out all his hard earned cash

And now macheath spends just like a sailor

Could it be our boy did something rash

Now i say jenny diver sookie taudry

Ooh miss lotte lenya and old lucy brown

Oh the line forms on the right babe

Now that mackys back in town

I said jenny diver woah woah sookie taudry

Look out miss lotte lenya and old lucy brown

Yes the line forms on the right babe

Now that mackys back in town

Look out old mackys back
