"Unknown Stuntman" was a single sung by Lee Majors, released in 1984, written by Glen A. Larson, Gail Jensen, and Dave Somerville, and with a 2-minute and 38 second running time. A shorter version (1:47 and with slightly different instrumentation) was used as the theme song for the television series The Fall Guy, in which Majors starred as the title character, a stuntman who worked as a bounty hunter when not filming stunts.

The lyrics make several references to major film stars of the day, such as Farrah Fawcett (Majors' estranged wife), Bo Derek, Sally Field, Jaclyn Smith, Cheryl Ladd, Cheryl Tiegs, Raquel Welch, Robert Redford, Clint Eastwood, and Burt Reynolds.
