Mack The Knife

Westlife · Allow Us To Be Frank [2004]

Oh the shark babe, has such teeth dear

and he shows them, pearly white

just a jack knife, has ol' Mac Heath 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 tho' wears ol' Mac Heath babe

so there's never, never a trace of red.



Now on the side walk, huh, hu, whoo, sunny morning uh huh

lies a body, just oozing life

someone's sneakin' round the corner

could that someone be Mack the knife?



There's a tug boat,huh, huh, down by the river dontcha know

where a cement bag's just a droopin' on down

oh that cement is just, is there for the weight dear

five'll get ya ten, old Mackys back in town.



Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller?

he dissapeared babe

after drawin' out, all his hard earned cash

and now MacHeath spends just like a sailor

could it be, our boys 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 miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

yes that line forms on the right babe

now that Macky's..... back in town........



Look out ol' Macky's back
