Theme From Shaft Lyrics

Artist: Isaac Hayes

Theme from "Shaft"
Isaac Hayes

Shaft
Who's the black private dick
that's a sex machine to all the chicks?
(Shaft!)
You're damn right
Who is the man
that would risk his neck for his brother man?
(Shaft!)
Can ya dig it?
Who's the cat that won't cop out
when there's danger all about
(Shaft!)
Right on
You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother--
(Shut your mouth)
But I'm talkin' about Shaft
(Then we can dig it)
He's a complicated man
but no one understands him but his woman
(John Shaft)

by El Hombre on 9/28/2008 6:40am The hippest song ever, by the hippest artist ever......Gonna have this song played at my funeral as my casket is carried out.............purely, to hopefully bring a smile to everyone's face.....Hey, that man had a sense of humour.

by Dave on 3/15/2009 4:49pm Isn't "black private dick" a little racist?
by PC Too Far on 6/21/2009 6:17am Is a black man referring to himself as a black man racist? Private dick is a common reference to private investigator. To answer directly, no it's not racist, not even close. But your thoughts may be.
