Mack The Knife Lyrics - Louis Armstrong

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear 

And he shows them, pearly white 

Just a jackknife has MacHeath, dear 

And he keeps it out of sight 

When the shark bites with his teeth, dear 

Scarlet billows start to spread 

Fancy gloves though wears MacHeath, dear 

So there? s not a trace, mmm of red 

On the sidewalk, Sunday mornin', baby 

Lies a body, oozin' life 

Someone sneakin' around the corner 

Is the someone, Mack the Knife?

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

From a tugboat, by the river 

A cement bag's drooppin' down 

Yeah, the cement's just for the weight, dear 

Bet you Mack, he's back in town 

Looky here Louie Miller, disappeared, dear 

After drawing out his cash 

And MacHeath spends like a sailor 

Did our boy do somethin' rash?

Oh, the line forms on the right, dears 

Now that Mack, he's back in town 

Take it, Satch
