Well I'm not the kind to kiss-and-tell, but I've been seen with Farrah.
I've never been with anything less than a nine, so fine.
I've been on fire with Sally Field, gone fast with a girl named Bo.
But somehow they just don't end up as mine.
It's a death-defying life I lead. I take my chances.
I'd die for living in the movies and TV.
But the hardest thing I ever do is watch my leading ladies
Kiss some other guy while I'm bandaging my knee.
I might fall from a tall building, I might roll a brand new car,
'Cause I'm the Unknown Stuntman that made Redford such a star.
I've never spent much time in school, but I've taught ladies plenty.
It's true I hire my body out for pay, hey, hey.
I've gotten burned over Cheryl Tiegs, blown up for Raquel Welch,
But when I wind up in the hay, it's only hay, hey, hey.
I might jump an open drawbridge, or Tarzan from a vine,
'Cause I'm the Unknown Stuntman that makes Eastwood look so fine.
They'll never make me president but I've got the best first ladies.
Some days I've got 'em as far as the eye can see.
A morning dive with Jackie Smith, I crash in the night with Cheryl,
But in the end they never stay with me.
I might fall from a tall building so Burt Reynolds don't get hurt,
I might leap a mighty canyon, so he can kiss and flirt,
But, while that smooth talker's kissing my girl, I'm just kissing dirt,
Yes I'm the lonely stuntman that made a lover out of Burt...
