Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear

And it shows them pearly white
    G minorGm          C minorCm
Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe
    F7F7          A#A#
And he keeps it, ah, out of sight

Scarlet billows start to spread
    G minorGm            C minorCm
Fancy gloves, oh, wears old MacHeath, babe

So there's never, never a trace of red

Where a cement bags just a-drooping on down
