Well, I'm not the kind to kiss and tell but I've been seen with Farah.
I've never been ith 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 bandaging'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 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.
While that smoth talker's kissin' my girl I'm JUST kissin' dirt,
Yes, I'm the lonely stuntman that made a lover out of Burt
