Mack the Knife

After drawing out all his hard earned cash
Look out Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Now Jenny Diver, huh huh, yeah, Sookie Taudry
Could that someone be Mack, the knife?
Now d’ya hear about Louis Miller, he disappeared, babe
Now that Macky’s back in town
Just a jack knife has old MacHeath, babe
There’s a tug boat, uh huh, huh huh, down by the river, don’t you know?
Oh, that cement is just, it’s there for the weight, dear

Now that Macky’s back in town
Yes, that line forms on the right, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red
Oh, the line forms on the right, babe

Fancy gloves though wears old MacHeath, babe
I said Jenny Diver, woah, woah Sookie Taudry
And he keeps it out of sight
Could it be our boy's done something rash?
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner

Now on the sidewalk, uh huh, huh, oh, Sunday morning, uh huh
Where a cement bag’s just a-drooping on down
Five will get you ten ol’ Macky’s back in town
And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor

Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Lies a body just oozing life

Scarlet billows start to spread
You know when the shark bites with his teeth, babe
