Thanx in advance.
You know I smoked a lot of grass.
Oh Lord! I popped a lot of pills.
But I've never touched nothin'
That my spirit couldn't kill.
You know I've seen a lot of people walking 'round
With tombstones in their eyes.
But the pusher don't care
If you live -- or if you die.
God Damn! The pusher.
God Damn! The pusher.
I said God Damn! God damn the pusher man.
You know the dealer, the dealer is a man
With a lump of grass in his hand.
But the pusher is a monster
Not a natural man.
The dealer for a nickel
Goin to sell you lots of sweet dreams.
Ah...but the pusher will ruin your body;
Lord he'll leave your mind to scream.
God Damn! The pusher.
God Damn! God damn the pusher.
I said God Damn! God damn the pusher man.
Well now if I were the president of this land
You know I'd declare total war on the pusher man.
I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he run,
And I'd kill him with my bible, and my razor and my gun....
GOD DAMN! The pusher
God damn the pusher.
I said God damn! God damn the pusher man!

THE PUSHER
- written by Hoyt Axton
- as recorded by Steppenwolf on their 1968 self-titled album
You know I smoked a lot of grass
Oh, Lord, I popped a lotta pills
But I've never touched nothin'
Mmm-hmm, that my spirit, could kill
You know I've seen a lot of people walkin' 'round
With tombstones in their eyes
But the pusher don't care
Ah, if you live or if you die
God damn, mm-hmm, the pusher
God damn, hey-hey, I say, the pusher
I said, God damn, God damn the pusher man
You know the dealer, the dealer is a man
With a love-grass in his hand
Ah, but the pusher is a monster
The guy is not a natural man
The dealer, for a nickel, Lord
He'll sell you lots of sweet dreams
Ah, but the pusher'll ruin your body
Lord, he'll leave your, he'll leave your mind to scream
God damn, ah-ha-ah, the pusher
God damn, God damn the pusher
I said, God damn, God, God damn the pusher man

Well now, if I were the president of this land
You know I'd declare total war on the pusher man
I'd cut him if he stands and I'd shoot him if he'd run
And I'd kill him with my Bible, and my razor and my gun
God damn, ah, the pusher
God damn the pusher
I said, God damn, God damn the pusher man

SNOWBLIND FRIEND
(Hoyt Axton)
You say it was this mornin’ when you last saw your good friend
Lyin’ on the pavement with-a misery on his brain
Stoned on some new potion he found upon the wall
Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall
He only had a dollar to live on till next Monday
But he spent it all on comfort for his mind
Did you say you think he’s blind
Someone should call his parents, a sister or a brother
And they’ll come to take him back home on a bus
But he’ll always be a problem to his poor and puzzled mother
And he’ll always be another one of us
He said he wanted heaven but prayin’ was too slow
So he bought a one-way ticket on an airline made of snow
Did you say you saw your good friend flyin’ low, flyin’ low, dyin’ slow
You say it was this morning when you last saw your good friend
Lyin’ on the pavement with-a misery on his brain
Stoned on some new potion he found upon the wall
Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall
He only had a dollar to live on till next Monday
He said he wanted heaven but prayin’ was too slow
So he bought a one-way ticket on an airline made of snow
Did you say you saw your good friend flyin’ low, dyin’ slow, flyin’ low
Did you say you saw your good friend flyin’ low, dyin’ slow, flyin’ low
Blinded by snow
