Well, I won't back down No, I won't back down You can stand me up at the gates of hell But I won't back down
No, I'll stand my ground Won't be turned around And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down (I won't back down) Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out (I won't back down) Hey, I will stand my ground And I won't back down
Well I know what's right I got just one life In a world that keeps on pushin' me around But I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down (I won't back down) Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out (I won't back down) Hey, I will stand my ground And I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out (I won't back down) Hey, I won't back down (I won't back down) Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out (I won't back down) Hey, I will stand my ground And I won't back down No, I won't back down
