| Song | Theme From Shaft |
| Artist | Bernard Purdie |
| Album | What's Jazz ? - Jazz Funk |
| 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!) | |
| 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) |
