(verse 1)
[macheath]
john was all present and jim was all there

[jackie]
and georgie was up for promotion

[macheath]
not that the army gave a b-gg-r who they were

[jackie]
when confronting some heathen commotion

(chorus)
[both]
the troops live under
the cannon’s thunder
from sind to cooch behar
moving from place to place
where they come face to face

[jackie]
with a different breed of fellow

[macheath]
whose skins are black or yellow

[both]
and quick as winking chopped them into beefsteak tartar!

(verse 2)
[jackie]
johnny found his whiskey too warm

[macheath]
and jimmy found the weather too balmy

[jackie]
but georgie took them both by the arm

[macheath]
and said, “don’t ever disappoint the army!”

(chorus)
[both]
the troops live under
the cannon’s thunder
from sind to cooch behar
moving from place to place
where they come face to face

[jackie]
with a different breed of fellow

[macheath]
whose skins are black or yellow

[both]
and quick as winking chopped them into beefsteak tartar!

(verse 3)
[macheath]
johnny’s a write-off and jimmy is dead

[jackie]
and georgie was shot for looting

[macheath]
but young men’s blood goes on being red

[jackie]
and the army goes ahead recruiting

(chorus)
[both]
the troops live under
the cannon’s thunder
from sind to cooch behar
moving from place to place
where they come face to face

[jackie]
with a different breed of fellow

[macheath]
whose skins are black or yellow

[both]
and quick as winking chopped them into beefsteak tartar!
