Lyric
Oh, the shark has pretty teeth dear
and he shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has MacHeath, babe
and he keeps it, out of sight, dear
When that shark bites with his teeth, dear
scarlet billows start to spread, dear
Just a gloved hand, has MacHeath, babe
and he never shows single drop of red
On the sidewalk, Sunday morning,
comin' down lies a_body oozin' life
Someone's sneakin' around the corner
could that someone be Mack the Knife, dear?
There's a tugboat down by the river
