It's a dirty job

But somebody's got to do it

Better get to it

Somebody's gotta do it

Whatever it takes, whatever it takes

Any work at all

Is better than none

Better buckle down to it

Gotta get the job done

Gotta earn my pay... i gotta earn my pay

I can't wait around on the lottery

And there ain't no millionaires

Lookin' for me



And somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody



I can think of better things

I'd rather do

I might get lucky

And i'm hopin' to

But until i do

I gotta compromise

The job ain't much

But at least it's mine

It beats standin'

In the unemployment line

Put pride aside

And i'll improvise



Even if i do get a better job

Somebody else

Has gotta fill my spot



Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody

Somebody

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

It's a dirty job

It's a low-down dirty job

Somebody



Even if the rules are too hard to follow

Even when pride is too hard to swallow

It's another day so it's another dollar

That's what it's all about, oh



It's a dirty job

But somebody's got to do it

Better get to it

Somebody's gotta do it

Whatever it takes

Gotta keep the faith

Any work at all

Is better than none

Better buckle down to it

Gotta get the job done

Gotta earn my way

And it's a workin' day



The job ain't much

But at least it's mine

It beats standin'

In the unemployment line



Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody's gotta do it, do it

Somebody

Somebody

It's a dirty job

Somebody's gotta do this low-down dirty job

Somebody

It's a dirty job, it's a dirty job

It's a low-down dirty job

Somebody

Somebody
