Eb E. A.

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

When that shark bites with his teeth, dear Scarlet billows, they start to spread Fancy gloves though has Macheath, dear So there's never a trace of red

On the sidewalk, one Sunday mornin' Lies a body oozin' life Someone's sneaking 'round the corner Could that someone, be Mack the Knife?

From a tugboat on the river goin' slow A cement bag, it is dropping down Yeah, the cement is just for the weight, dear You can make a large bet Macheath is back in town

14

Louie Miller, he split the scene, babe After drawin' out all the bread from his stash Now Macheath spends just like a sailor, Do you suppose that our boy, he did something rash?

Hey Sookie Taudry, Jenny Diver, Polly Peachum, Old Miss Lulu Brown Oh the line forms, on the right dear Now that Macheath, I mean that man Macheath

Ah, old Satchmo, Louis Armstrong, Bobby Darrin They did this song nice, Lady Ella too They all sang it, with so much feeling That Old Blue Eyes, he ain't gonna add nothing new

But with this band, right behind me Swinging hard, Jack, I know I can't lose When I tell you, all about Mack the Knife babe It's an offer, you can never refuse

Bucket's Got a Hole In It

Eb E B

Well my bucket's got a hole in it. x3 I can't buy no beer

I hear you knockin' but you can't come in. x3 You can't have no more.

Well, I went up on the mountain - I looked down into the deep blue sea& I asked all the folx and the fishes there - to hear my thirsty plea.

Well I'm standin' on a corner - With a bucket in my handI'm waitin' for a woman - That ain't got no man.

Well, there ain't no use of - me workin' so hardWhen I got a woman - in the boss man's yard.

Well, me and my baby - we just bought a FordAnd now we sit together - on the running board.

When you're walkin' down 31st Street - You had better look aroundPolice firin' squad is on their beat - An you'll be jailhouse bound

They ain't-a |Standin' on the corner - Ev'ry|thing was so slowCan't make no money-- Tricks ain't walkin' no mo'

Gonna start a new racket - Gonna start it out rightGonna sell moonshine in the day - An peddle dope at night

Then if I can't make no money - Gonna catch the Santa FeGonna drink good liquor - And let all women be.

I went down to St. James Infirmary.I saw my baby there.Lying on a long white table,So sweet, so cold, so fair. I went up to see the doctor. 'She's very low,' he said. I went back to see my baby And great god she was lying there dead.I went down to Old Joe's Bar-room.Down on the corner by the square.They were serving drinks as usual.And the usual crowd was there. On my left stood Joe MacKennedy. His eyes were blood-shot red. He turned to the crowd around him And these are the words that he said.

A. D. A.

Let her go, let her go, God bless her.Wherever she may be.She may search this wide world overBut she'll never find another man like me. When I die please bury me In a high top stetson hat. Put a gold piece on my watch chain. So the boys will know I died standing pat.Get six gamblers to carry my coffinSix chorus girls to sing me a songPut a twenty-piece jazz band on my tail gateTo raise Hell as we go along This is the end of my story. So let's have another round of booze. And if any one should ask you just tell them I've got the St. James Infirmary Blues.

I woke up this morning ‘bout half past four, I told my baby I couldn’t use her no more.U better

Well my little girl she’s all nice and round, She can look up long as I can look down… Down in Georgia got a dance that’s new, There ain’t nothin’ to it, it’s easy to do. It’s called…

Now the old folks are doin it, young folks to, Old Folks learn the young folks what to do I was walking downtown and I stumbled & fell, My mouth jumped open like a front wheel well…
