Well
I'm not the kind to kiss and tell
but I've been seen with Farah.
I've never been with anything less than a nine so fine.
I've been on fire with Sally Fields
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 die for a livin' in the movies and T.V.
but the hardest thing I ever do is watch my leadin' ladies
kiss some other guy while I'm bandagin' my knees.

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 taught ladies plenty.
It's true I hire my body out for pay.
I've gotten burned over Cheryl Tiegs
blown up for Raquel Welch

but when I end up in the hay it's only hay
hay
hay.

I might jump an open drawbridge or Tarzan from a vine

'cause I'm the unknown stuntman that makes Eastwood lookes 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.
While that smooth talker's kissin' my girl I'm just kissin' dirt

yes
I'm the lonely stuntman that made a lover out for Burt.
