Mack The Knife Lyrics - Live From The Golden Nugget [live] - Frank Sinatra

FRANK: 

Hey, the shark has pretty teeth, dear 

And it shows them pearly white 

Just a jackknife has Mac Heath, dear 

And he keeps it, way out of sight 

when that shark bites with his teeth, dear 

Scarlet billows they begin to spread 

Fancy white gloves, has Mac Heath, dear 

So there's never, never a trace of red 

On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning, 

Lies a body, oozing' life, 

Someone's sneaking', 'round that corner 

Could that someone perhaps per chance be Mack the Knife?

POPULAR SONG: Travis Scott 'HIGHEST IN THE ROOM' - LYRICS 

From the tugboat, on a river going slow 

A cement bag's dropping down 

You know, that cement is for the weight, dear 

You can make a large bet that bums in town

FRANK: 

My man Louie Miller 

he split the scene babe, 

After drawing' out all the bread from his stash 

Now Mac Heath spends like a sailor 

Do you suppose this guy he did something rash? 

Old Satchmo, Louie Armstrong, Bobby Daron 

They did this song nice, Lady Ella too 

They all sang it, with so much feeling 

That old blue eyes here ain't gonna add anything new 

JIMMY: 

(oh yes you do) 

FRANK: 

But with this big, fat, band jumping behind me 

Swinging hard Jack 

JIMMY: 

(That's Jimmy) 

FRANK: 

I know I cant loose, When I tell you 

All about Mack the Knife, babe 

It's an offer you can never refuse 

We've got Patrick William, 

Bill Miller playin' that piano 

And this wonderful, great, big, band 

bringin' up the rear 

all these bad cats, in this bad town 

they make the greatest sound you ever gonna hear 

Oh Sukey Tawdry, 

JIMMY: 

(Oh Sukey Tawdry)

Yeah that bum is back 

JIMMY: 

(Oh that bum he's back) 

FRANK: 

And I'm gonna tell you 

what I think that you should know 

JIMMY: 

(What should I do) 

FRANK: 

You better lock your door 

And call the law 

Because Mack he 

he's come back to town 

Get under the bed hide 

JIMMY: 

(Look out old Mack is back)
