Cover art for Tennessee Pusher lyrics by Old Crow Medicine Show

Actually i think the song is about bootlegging moonshine and his "love" is helping the law in helping them try to bust him. In Tennessee, pushers are moonshiners.... thats why he is in the woods late at nite..... not selling meth..... moonshiners do their work in the moonlight.... and the woods.... so pretty much his love was a narc and he caught her helping them.
