Mack The Knife (Live At The Deutschlandhalle, Berlin, 1960) Ella Fitzgerald

Thank you, we'd like to do something for you now
We haven't heard a girl sing it and since it's so popular
We'd like to try and do it for you
We hope we remember all the words

Oh the shark has pearly teeth, dear
And he shows them, pearly white
Just a jack knife has Macheath, dear
And he keeps it out of sight

Oh the shark bites with his teeth, dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves though, wears Macheath dear
So there's not, not a trace of red

On a Sunday, Sunday morning
Lies a body, oozin' life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Tell me could it be, could it be, could it be Mack the Knife?

Oh what's the next chorus, to this song, now
This is the one now I don't know
But it was a swinging tune and it's a hit tune
So we tried to do Mack the Knife

Ah, Louis Miller, oh something about cash
Yeah Miller, he was spending that trash
And Macheath dear, he spends like a sailor
Tell me, tell me, tell me could that boy do, something rash?
