Lyrics:

Whos the black private dick
Thats 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?

Whos the cat that wont cop out
When theres danger all about?
SHAFT!
Right On!

They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother
SHUT YOUR MOUTH!
Im talkin bout Shaft.
THEN WE CAN DIG IT!

Hes a complicated man
But no one understands him but his woman
JOHN SHAFT!
