Bobby Darin Mack The Knife Lyrics

Oh, the shark, babe, has such enamel, pricey
And he displays them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old Macheath, babe
And he assists in keeping it out of sight

You know when that shark bites with his enamel, babe
Scarlet billows begin to unfold
Fancy gloves, although, wears outdated Macheath, babe
So there’s by no means, by no means a trace of red

Now on the sidewalk, ooh, sunny morning, uh-huh
Lies a body just oozin’ existence
Eek, and any individual’s sneakin’ ’round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There’s a tugboat down via the river, don’t ya know
Where a cement bag’s just a-droopin’ on down
Oh, that cement is simply, it’s there for the weight, dear
Five’ll get ya ten, outdated Macky’s back in town

Now d’ya pay attention about Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe
After drawin’ out all his hard earned cash
And now Macheath spends similar to a sailor
Could it's our boy’s carried out something rash?

Now Jenny Diver, ho, ho, yeah, Sukey Tawdry
Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and previous Lucy Brown
Oh, the line paperwork on the right, babe
Now that Macky’s again on the town

I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and outdated Lucy Brown
Yes, that line paperwork on the proper, babe
Now that Macky’s back on the town

Look out ol’ Macky’s again
