Isaac Hayes
"Shaft"

Who's the black private dick
That's a sex machine to all the chicks?
Shaft
Ya damn right

Who is the man that would risk his neck for his brother man?
Shaft
Can you dig it?

Who's the cat that won't cop out when there's danger all about?
Shaft
Right on

They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother..
Shut your mouth
But I'm talkin' 'bout Shaft
Then we can dig it

He's a complicated man
But no one understands him but his woman
John Shaft
