Текст песни: Mack the Knife + перевод

Performed by Bobby Darin

Oh, the shark, Babe

Has such teeth, Dear

And he shows those

Pearly whites

Just a jack-knife

Has old Mack Heath, Babe

And he keeps it outta sight

You know, when that shark bites

With its teeth, Babe

Scarlet billows start to spread

Fancy gloves, oh

Wears old Mack Heath, Babe

So there’s never —

Never a trace of red

Now, on the sidewalk

Ooh, sunny mornin', uh-huh

Lies a body

Just oozin' life. Eek!

And someone’s sneakin'

'Round the corner!

Could that someone

Be Mack the Knife?

Ah, there’s a tugboat

Down by the river, don’t you know

Where a cement bag’s

Just a-droopin' on down

Oh, that cement is just…

It’s there for the weight, Dear

Five’ll get you ten

Old Mackie’s back in town!

Now’d you hear 'bout Louie Miller?

He disappeared, Babe

After drawin' out

All his hard-earned cash

And now Mack Heath spends

Just like a sailor

Could it be our boys

Done something rash?

Now, Jenny Diver, oh, oh yeah!

Tookie Taudry!

Oh, Miss Lottie Linia

And Ol' Lucy Brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, Babe

Now that Mackie’s back in town

Now, Jenny Diver, oh, oh yeah!

Tookie Taudry!

Oh, Miss Lottie Linia

And Ol' Lucy Brown

Oh, the line forms on the right, Babe

Now that Mackie’s back in town

Look out! Ol' Mackie’s back!
