Текст песни Bobby Darin - Mack The Knife Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear
And it shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe
And he keeps it out of sight.
You know when that shark bites, with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, though, wears old MacHeath, babe
So there’s never, never a trace of red.
Now on the sidewalk, huh, huh, whoo, sunny morning, uh, huh
Lies a body just oozing life, eeek!
And someone’s sneaking ‘round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?
There's a tugboat, huh, huh, down by the river don’tcha know
Where a cement bag's just a dropping on down
Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear
Five will get you ten old Macky's back in town
Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe
After drawing out all his hard-earned cash
And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor
Could it be our boy's done something rash?
Now Jenny Diver, ho, ho, yeah, Sukey Tawdry
Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Oh, the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town
I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Yes, that line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town.
