第一幕

("Overture")

來到倫敦的貧民區，演員們唱出這個罪貫滿盈的城市之中，以大盜麥希為首惡。("The Ballad of Mack the Knife")丐幫幫主積隆歡迎新加入的成員，並教他一套在這個地方可以活下去的法則。("Peachum's Morning Choral")他與其妻討論女兒波莉的新男友，當他們赫然發現那便是麥希的時候深感不妙，要阻止這頭婚事。("The Instad Of Song")另一邊廂，麥希和他的爪牙們正準備著婚禮，並要爪牙們唱歌助興。("Wedding Song")他以恐佈統領他們，為了緩和氣氛波莉也來一曲。("Pirate Jenny")突然線報指警察頭子布朗殺到，麥希跟之一輪招呼後才揭示二人是軍旅好友的關係。("Army Song")在布朗祝福麥希之後，沒有承諾沒有介指的婚禮便進行。("Love Song")回到家中波莉宣佈他已經與麥希結婚的消息，("Barbara Song")積隆夫妻焦急不已，決定要不擇手段從中作梗。而他們的籌碼卻是想利用布朗和麥希的關係去捉住麥希。("Act I Finale")

第二幕

波莉回去警告麥希，他卻不大當是一回事，("Melodrama")更將事業交給波莉處理，自己暫時避一避風頭。("Polly's Song")但積隆太太深知這男人好色成性，("Ballad of Sexual Dependency")必定會去妓院找老相好珍妮，便預先買通了她。果然，麥希又回到這溫柔窩，("Pimp's Ballad")正當他沉醉在聲色犬馬之中的時候，("Ballad of the Pleasant Life")警察們殺到，畢竟麥希是通緝犯，這下布朗也不能不將之逮捕了。在牢獄中麥希以言語哄布朗之女露茜放他出去，更不惜棄波莉於不顧。("Jealousy Duet")果然這讓露茜軟化了，("Aria of Lucy")放了他出去。積隆得知後便去威脅布朗，如果他不捉回麥希的話便會帶領群丐搗亂英女皇的嘉冕儀式，陪上布朗的仕途。("Act II Finale")

第三幕

珍妮來到找積隆討賞，積隆指麥希已逃故要賴帳。然而，珍妮卻指麥希現正在妓女家中風流快活呢。("Song of Insufficiency of Human Struggling")布朗趕到要捉走積隆和妓女們，卻已經太遲，他現下除了抓住麥希之外別無選擇。("Reminiscence")珍妮回想當年和麥希的一段情，嗟嘆現下角色互換得真快。("Solomon Song")麥希不斷尋找方法逃走，("Call From the Grave")但無論是他的手下或是波莉都已經不能幫助他。("Grave Inscription")在最後和布朗算清恩仇之後，麥希在群丐見証下步向絞刑台。("Walk to Gallows")積龍向觀眾說：這可不是個好結局，還是還你們一個大團圓吧。所以，突然女皇的使者駕到，大赦麥希，更加官晉爵，不用再為錢銀憂愁。眾人回復演員身份，要觀眾想一想劇中的意義，尤其是那句名言：究竟搶劫銀行的人罪大，還是擁有它的人才是犯罪者？(Act III Finale")
