"Lovin' You's a Dirty Job" is a song by the American glam metal band Ratt. It was released as the first single from their 1990 album "Detonator". The song was co-written by Ratt bassist Juan Croucier, guitarist Warren DeMartini, lead singer Stephen Pearcy and songwriter Desmond Child. The song is known for its anthemic chorus, and Pearcy's raspy vocals.

Music video

In the music video for the song, the cliffhanger ending from "Shame Shame Shame" is resolved. The band performs on what appears to be another planet where the dueling airships from the previous video crashed and landed. They seduce the rival stripper-manned airship with their hot looks, musical abilities, and slick moves. It is implied that they all receive sexual favors from the strippers afterwards as a reward.
