Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear
And he shows them, pearly white
Just a jack knife has old Macheath, dear
And he keeps it out of sight

And when the shark bites with his teeth, dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though wears old Macheath, dear
So there's never, there's never a trace of red

On the sidewalk, Sunday morning
Lies a body just oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There's a tugboat down by the river
Don't you know? With cement bags drooping down
Well that cement is just
It's meant for the weight, dear
Five will get you ten, Mackie's back in town

Here about Louie Miller, he disappeared now
After drawing out all of his hard earned cash
And now Macheath spends just like a sailor
Could it be our boy's done something rash?

Jenny Diver, Sukey Tawdry
Look out Miss Lawdie Lenya and Old Lucy Brown
That line forms on the right, babe
Now that Mackie's back in town

See Jenny Diver, Sukey Tawdry
Look out Miss Lawdie Lenya and Old Lucy Brown
Well that line forms on the right, babe
Now that Mackie's back in town

Lookout, Ol' Mackie's back
Give him the real thing
