Mack the Knife - Live in Hamburg
Oh the shark has pretty teeth dear
And he shows them pearly whites/
Just a jack-knife, has MacHeath dear
And he keeps it out of sight
When the shark bites
With his teeth, dear
And scarlet billows start to spread
And fancy gloves though, wears MacHeath dear
So there's never, never a trace of red.
On a sidewalk, Sunday morning,
Lies a body, oozin' life
And someone's sneakin' around the corner
And is that someone be Mack the Knife?
From the tugboats, by the river
There's cement bags, droppin' down
That cement's just for the weight dear
Did your boy, did your boy do something rash
And Louie Miller just disappeared dear
After drawing, all his cash
Just MacHeath, he spends like a sailor
Did your boy do, do-do-do-do
Boy do something rash
And since more than just thirteen years
I have this great big band behind me
And we'll keep on swingin' 'til the day of dawn
Well a band like this
There's nothing that I can lose
And we keep on swingin'
Swingin' 'round the doodle-day of dawn yeah
And Sukey Tawdry and Jenny Diver
And Holly Peaches, Miss Lucy Brown
Oh the line forms, just to the right dear
I bet you Mack is, oh Mack is back in town
Sukey Tawdry, Holly Peaches, Lucy Brown and Louie Miller
Oh the line forms
There they're keepin' 'em down
oh the line forms, just on the right dear
And old Macky, I know that Mack is
Mack is back in town, yeah
Bet you Mack is in town
And he shows them pearly whites/
Just a jack-knife, has MacHeath dear
And he keeps it out of sight
When the shark bites
With his teeth, dear
And scarlet billows start to spread
And fancy gloves though, wears MacHeath dear
So there's never, never a trace of red.
On a sidewalk, Sunday morning,
Lies a body, oozin' life
And someone's sneakin' around the corner
And is that someone be Mack the Knife?
From the tugboats, by the river
There's cement bags, droppin' down
That cement's just for the weight dear
Did your boy, did your boy do something rash
And Louie Miller just disappeared dear
After drawing, all his cash

Did your boy do, do-do-do-do

Bet you Mack is in town
