DING!Billy wins the prize!I can't count the times he used that word, but it's in "She Loves You," "I'm A Loser," "Yes It Is," and a lot more (which I can't think of at the moment) ------- Lennon even nicknamed his son, Sean, "My Pride."Ern

I might have made the worst guess possible. I mean, does the word pride even appear once in Dylan's entire body of work?Maybe it was not his kind of word. Jokers, theives and clowns abound, pain and suffering are everywhere, but no pride to be found. At least not yet. So far I have only looked through the "A" listings of a Dylan site which seems pretty extensive, but I don't know if it is complete.
