Grier's stars as Coffy, a nurse who is fed up with the narcotics that have
infiltrated the inner city. When her eleven-year-old sister is hospitalized
after shooting some contaminated heroin, Coffy hits the streets with a loaded
shotgun, determined to stop the drug pusher m*f*ers once and for all.
Top 2 scenes: King George unzips and King George

Coffy's
Song:
Coffy, baby.
Sweet as a chocolate bar.
Coffy, baby.
No one knows who you are.
Such a rare black pearl
in a great big world
full of tragedy and tears.
No one knows and no one cares.
Throw caution to the wind.
Your one love they just killed.
Love only comes to those who dare.
Danger you don't see.
It's hidden carefully.
For Coffy.
(Coffy, Coffy baby)
Coffy.
(Coffy, Coffy baby)
Coffy, baby.
As gentle as a song.
Coffy, baby.
You can't see right from wrong.
In your heart you're miles apart
from the life that you once knew.
But Coffy baby, danger waits for you.
For you. . . for you. . .
