There’s a fairly new Jeep commerical using a song that I just can’t make out. Dirty Deeds, something something something. Does anyone know what they are singing?

Probably “done dirt cheap”, assuming they haven’t changed the lyrics and I’m thinking of the same song.

Probably the AC/DC song that goes “Dirty deeds done dirt cheap.” Haven’t seen the commercial but I’d guess they’re showing the Jeep plowing through mud and up dirt tracks and stuff.

Weird… I remember hearing that as one of the most often misquoted songs. The comon mistake? “Dirty deeds dunder Jeep.”

Was that in a Straight Dope book?
