Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come here to justify
One man to overthrow
[Chorus]
In the name of love, what more in the name of love
In the name of love, what more in the name of love
[Verse 2]
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man, he resist
One man washed on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss
[Chorus]
In the name of love, what more in the name of love
In the name of love, what more in the name of love
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 3]
Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride
[Chorus]
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 (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
In the name of love, what more in the name of love (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
