Lay way back you cats, dig in, bivouac, yes
Mr. Mac is moving in
ย
Oh the shark has pretty teeth, dear
And he shows 'em pearly white
Just a jackknife has MacHeath, dear
And he keeps it well out of sight
When the shark bites with his teeth, dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, oh, wears MacHeath, dear
So there's not a trace of red
On the sidewalk Sunday morning
Lies a body oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Is that someone Mack the Knife?
From a tugboat by the river
A cement bag's dropping down
The cement, that's just for the weight, dear
I bet you Mac is back in town
ย
Mr. Miller disappeared, dear
After drawing out all of his cash
Went tap city and MacHeath spends like a sailor
Did our boy do something rash?
Sukie Tawdray, Jenny Diver
Polly Peachum, Miss Lucy Brown
Oh, the line forms on the right, dear
Now that Mac is back in town
