Lyrics of
Pride

Pride (In the Name of Love) by U2 is a tribute to Martin Luther King Jr., discussing the fight for equality and justice. It was inspired by a book Bono read about Dr. King and the impact his death had.

One man come in the name of love,
One man come and go.
One man come he to justify,
One man to overthrow,
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?

One man crawled on a barbed wire fence,
One man he resist.
One man washed on an empty beach.
One man betrayed with a kiss.

In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?

Nobody like you
Nobody like you
Ooo-oo-oo-oo
Ooo-oo-oo-oo
Ooo-oo-oo-oo
Ooo-oooo

Early morning, April 4.
A shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
Free at last, they took your life,
They could not take your pride.

In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love?

End on B (or fade out)
