Dirty Jobs Theme Song Lyrics

Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe

Dirty Jobs Theme Song is entitled “We Care a Lot.” It is an old song by the band “Faith No More”, and was included in their first two albums—We Care a Lot and Introduce Yourself, released in 1985 and 1987 respectively. Basically, it has the lyrics “Oh, it’s a dirty job but someone’s gotta do it,” which makes it perfect for the show. Furthermore, in 2007, the theme song was temporarily replaced with a more generic theme song because of rights issues. Moreover, if you’d like, we have prepared a Scrubs Theme Song for all of you.

However, you might be looking for that “official, unofficial Dirty Jobs theme song.” If you’re familiar with the show, there was an episode where a viewer wrote to Mike and asked about his days as an opera singer—true story. So, it gave birth to a song, accompanied by a guitar and a banjo, with constantly changing lyrics, but always ends with the line “all you got to do is get yourself a dirty job.”

So, just watch the three videos below, where you can hear the theme songs discussed above.
