Mack el Navaja (Mack The Knife) |
Oh, the shark, babe has such teeth, dear |
And it shows them pearly white |
Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe |
And he keeps it, ah, out of sight |
You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe |
Scarlet billows start to spread |
But fancy gloves though wears old MacHeath, babe |
So there’s never, never a trace of red, darling |
Let the thing swing |
On the sidewalk, huh, huh, who Sunday morning, uh huh |
Lies a body just oozin' life, eek |
And someone’s sneakin' 'round the corner |
Tell me, could that someone be 'Mack The Knife'? |
There’s a tugboat, huh, huh, down by the river don’t you know? |
Where a cement bag’s just a hangin' on down |
Oh, that cement is there strictly for the weight, dear |
Five’ll get you ten old Macky’s back in town |
Did you hear 'bout Louie Miller? |
He done disappeared, dear |
After drawin' out, feels good, all his hard earned cash |
And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor |
Could it be our boy’s done something rash? |
Come on, come on |
Jenny Diver, ho, ho, ho, Sukey Tawdry |
Hello Miss Lotte Lenya, good evening, Lucy Brown |
Oh, the line forms way on the right, babe |
And now that Macky’s back in olderly town |
I said, «Jenny Diver, look out, Sukey Tawdry |
Stay back, Lotte Lenya, move it over Lucy Brown |
Oh the line forms way beyond the right, babe |
And now that Macky’s back in town» |
Look out, old Macky is back! |
