Pride And Joy Lyrics

Well you've heard about love givin' sight to the blind
My baby's lovin' cause the sun to shine
She's my sweet little thang, she's my Pride And Joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Yeah I love my baby, heart and soul
Love like ours won't never grow old
She's my sweet little thang, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Yeah I love my lady, she's long and lean
You mess with her, you'll see a man get mean
She's my sweet little thang, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Well I love my baby, like the finest wine
Stick with her until the end of time
She's my sweet little thang, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Yeah I love my baby, my heart and soul
Love like ours won't never grow old
She's my sweet little thang, she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby, I'm her little lover boy

Pride And Joy

Vaughan wrote this for his new girlfriend when he was inspired by their relationship. It was released as Texas Flood's first single, and quickly put the then-unknown Texas guitar slinger on the national map.

Stevie played this with Albert King on the album In Session, which was recorded live in 1983.

When Stevie Ray Vaughan was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015, his brother Jimmy Vaughan performed this song with Dolye Bramhall II, Gary Clark Jr., John Mayer and Double Trouble in honor of Stevie Ray.

Riviera Paradise Lyrics

Riviera Paradise

This is a soulful instrumental. After a full day of recording material for the album, Stevie asked his producer to leave the tape running and to turn down the lights. All alone, he recorded the guitar track on his Fender Strat. Double Trouble added the backing later, including an organ foundation from Reese Wynans.

On the Austin City Limits performance, Stevie introduced this by saying it was "For all the hurting people in the world." (thanks, Paul - Greenwood, SC, for above 2)

Crossfire Lyrics

Day by day,night after night
Blinded by the neon lights
Hurry here, hustlin' there
No one's got the time to spare
Money's tight, nothin' free
Won't somebody come and rescue me?
I am stranded, caught in the Crossfire
Stranded, caught in the crossfire

Tooth for tooth, eye for an eye
Sell your soul just to buy, buy, buy
Beggin' a dollar, stealin' a dime
Come on can't you see that I
I am stranded ,caught in the crossfire
I am stranded, caught in the crossfire

I need some kind of kindness, some kind of sympathy oh, no
We're stranded, caught in the crossfire

Save the strong lose the weak
Never turning the other cheek
Trust nobody don't be no fool
Whatever happened to the golden rule?
We got stranded, caught in the crossfire
We got stranded, caught in the crossfire
We got stranded, caught in the crossfire
Stranded, caught in the crossfire
Help me

Crossfire Song Chart

In Step was Stevie's first album after he stopped drinking, and is dedicated to sobriety. The album title is a reference to the 12 step program for alcoholics. The songs on the album refer to the pressures of life that lead to alcohol abuse, but show how you can still rock out even when you are sober.

This was written by the Austin-based songwriter Bill Carter and his wife/songwriting partner Ruth Ellsworth. The pair also wrote "Willie The Wimp" for Vaughan and Why Get Up?, which was recorded by The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Carter was in a band with Johnny Depp called P! in the mid-'90s.

Tommy Shannon, Chris Layton and Reese Wynans, all of whom were members of Vaughan's band Double Trouble, also got a songwriting credit on this track.

Stevie was tragically killed in a helicopter crash on Aug 27 1990, moments after sharing the stage (and guitar jam) with Eric Clapton, Robert Cray and brother Jimmy Vaughan. (thanks, Brad - Brisbane, Australia)
