Mack Knife
Mack Knife
Who was Mack the Knife?
And what was the song all about??
"Mack the Knife" was a song from Kurt Weiller's Three Penny Opera. Weiller was a German composer. Bobby Darin made the song famous in America in the 1950's as far as I know.
I am pretty sure Mack the Knife was a loan shark or enforcer.
Some lines...
"Well the shark dear,
Has such big teeth, dear..."
