Viewing Lyrics for Mack the Knife:
| | | Artist: | Ella Fitzgerald |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Mack the Knife | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 2 | | | | Lyrics: | {Spoken} 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 its 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
Oh Bobby Darin, and Louis Armstrong
They made
a record, oh but they did
And now Ella, Ella, and her fellas
We're making a wreck, what a
wreck
Of Mack The Knife
{Louis Armstrong imitation}
Oh Snookie Taudry, bah bah bah
nop do bo de do
bah bah bah nop do bo de do
Just a jack knife has Macheath, dear
And do
bo bo bah bah bah nop do bo de do {}
So, you've heard it
Yes, we've swung it
And we
tried to
Yes, we sung it
You won't recognize it
It's a surprise hit
This tune,
called Mack The Knife
And so we leave you, in Berlin town
Yes, we've swung ol | | | |
