Well, I'm not the kind to kiss and tell
But I've been seen with Farrah
I've never been seen with anything than a nine
So fine
I've been on fire with Sally Field
Gone fast with a girl named Bo
But somehow they did not end up as mine
It's a death defyin' life I lead
I take my chances
I die for a living in the movies and TV
But hardest thing I ever do
Is watch my leading ladies
Kiss some other guy
While I'm bandagin' my knee
I might fall from a tall building
I might roll a brand new car
'Cause I'm the unknown stuntman
That makes 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 got the best first ladies
Someday's I got'em as far as the eye can see - ouee
A morning dove with Jacky Smith,
a crash in the night with Cheryl
But in the end they never stay with me
On my fall from the Tower Building,
so Burt Reynolds don't get hurt
I might leap the mighty Canyon,
so he can kiss and flirt
Well, 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
But I've been seen with Farrah
I've never been seen with anything than a nine
So fine
I've been on fire with Sally Field
Gone fast with a girl named Bo
But somehow they did not end up as mine
It's a death defyin' life I lead
