Το " The Pusher " είναι ένα ροκ τραγούδι γραμμένο από τον Hoyt Axton , το οποίο έγινε δημοφιλές από την ταινία Easy Rider του 1969, η οποία χρησιμοποίησε την έκδοση των Steppenwolf για να συνοδεύσει τις πρώτες σκηνές που δείχνουν την εμπορία ναρκωτικών.

You know I smoked a lot of grass

And I popped a couple of pills, now

But I never touched nothin' that

could break my will

But I've seen a lot of people

With tombstones in their eyes

If they don't get their hard stuff

God damn the pusher man

God damn the pusher man

Give you lots of fine dreams

But the pusher take your body

And leave your mind to scream

God damn the pusher

God damn the pusher

 

Yeah, if I were the President

And my Bible and my gun

God damn the pusher man

God damn the pusher man
