I've never been able to find the lyrics, nor understand at least half of what Mick is saying during the breakdown of the song, w/ the echo and great drum pattern, just the ending "Let them eat shit, let them dirt"

Does ANYONE know the full correct lyrics to this part of the song?

And btw i.m.h.o. I think it is THE highlight of the album! very original and unique for the stones!

Underrated classic!!

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

I love this song, excellent guitar weaving, excellent KR's solo..........dirty atmosphere.R&R

very underrated album!

I don't know if it's full and correct but that's what timeisonourside.com says:

Living high, sitting in the sun
Sit on your ass 'til your work is done
You lazy mother, your hands are clean

You pull the strings and you've got the clout
There's something filthy living in your mouth
Pushing your buttons, you get away for free

You let somebody do the dirty work
Find some loser, find some jerk
Find some dumb ass, do it all for free

You let somebody do the dirty work
Find some loser, find some jerk
Find some greaseball, yeah

It's beginning to make me angry
I'm beginning to hate it
You're a user, you're a user
I'm going to shake it

You let somebody do the dirty work
I never see no grease on you, baby
Yeah, you never roll your sleeves up, do you, ever baby?

You let somebody do the dirty work
Find some @#$%&, find some jerk
Yeah do it all for free

While you're out having all the fun
They'll take the blame when the trouble comes
Let somebody do it, do it

It's beginning to make me angry
I'm beginning to hate you
You're a user, you're a user
I hate you

Make me crazy, make me crazy

Let somebody do the dirty work

(...) make me crazy

Sweeping the street, sucking the dirt
Taking it hard, taking the hurt
Look at the hungry laughing at me
Look at the poor sick in the street
Look at the rich feeding their faces
Look at them run the whole place
Making me angry, making me hurt
Let them eat shit, let them eat dirt

Make me crazy...
Dirty work...

Dirty Work is one of the rare Stones albums that includes the lyrics.

"Dirty Work", the track - Stones at their best, the album - very underrated - contains some of the hardest rockers of the Stones like DW and "Hold Back" and "Fight". One of the most "Keithian"-albums, love it.

That´s Ronnie´s solo. But all the guitars on this one are excellent.

The printed lyrics are included with the album...
