Bobby Darin - Mack The Knife Lyrics
Oh, the shark, Babe,Has such teeth, Dear,And he shows thosePearly whites.Just a jack-knifeHas old Mack Heath, Babe,And he keeps it outta sight.You know, when that shark bitesWith its teeth, Babe,Scarlet billows start to spread.Fancy gloves, oh,Wears old Mack Heath, Babe,So there's never -Never a trace of red.Now, on the sidewalk,Ooh, sunny mornin', uh-huh,Lies a bodyJust oozin' life. Eek!And someone's sneakin''Round the corner!Could that someoneBe Mack the Knife?Ah, there's a tugboatDown by the river, don't you know,Where a cement bag'sJust a-droopin' on down.Oh, that cement is just...It's there for the weight, Dear.Five'll get you tenOld Mackie's back in town!Now'd you hear 'bout Louie Miller?He disappeared, Babe,After drawin' outAll his hard-earned cash.And now Mack Heath spendsJust like a sailor.Could it be our boysDone something rash?Now, Jenny Diver, oh, oh yeah!Tookie Taudry!Oh, Miss Lottie Linia,And Ol' Lucy Brown.Oh, the line forms on the right, Babe,Now that Mackie's back in town.Now, Jenny Diver, oh, oh yeah!Tookie Taudry!Oh, Miss Lottie Linia,And Ol' Lucy Brown.Oh, the line forms on the right, Babe,Now that Mackie's back in town.Look out! Ol' Mackie's back!
