Oh, the shark has pret-ty teeth, dear,
And he shows them pearl-y white.
Just a jack knife has Mac-heath, dear,
And he keeps it out of sight.
When the shark bites with his teeth dear
Scar-let bil-lows start to spread
Fan-cy gloves though wears Mac-heath, dear,
So there's not a trace of red.
On the side-walk, Sun-day morn-ing
Lies a bod-y ooz-ing life.
Some-one's sneak-ing 'round the cor-ner
Is the some-one Mack the Knife?
From a tug-boat by the riv-er
A ce-ment bag's drop-ping down.
The ce-ment's just for the weight dear
Bet you Mack-ie's back in town.
Lou-ie Mil-ler dis-ap-peared dear
Af-ter draw-ing out his cash
And Mac-heath spends like a sail-or
Did our boy do some-thing rash?
Su-key Taw-dry, Jen-ny Div-er,
Pol-ly Peach-um, Lu-cy Brown
Oh the line forms on the right dear
Now that Mack-ie's back in town
