Pride and Joy (Stevie Ray Vaughan song)

"Pride and Joy" is the second track on Stevie Ray Vaughan's second album "Texas Flood". It is a blues song and is one of his most famous tracks. Parts of the solos are from "I'm Cryin'". Stevie wrote this song for his wife at that time, Lenora, but she thought it was written about a former girlfriend of his, so he wrote another song for her ("Lenny")Fact|date=May 2007.

This song (as well as "Rude Mood") seems to be influenced by an earlier song by Vaughan, "Live Another Day", from the album "In the Beginning".

The song has recently been used in a Nissan Altima commercial. The song is also included as a playable cover in ' and a master track in ' and will be offered as downloadable content for "Rock Band".
