Lyrics

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 dragging me down
I'm gonna stand my ground
No, I won't back down
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Hey baby
There ain't no easy way out
Hey, I-
I'll stand my ground
No, I won't back down
I won't back down
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Well, I know what's right
I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushing me around
But I'll stand my ground
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
No, I won't back down
Hey baby
There ain't no easy way out
Hey, I-
I'll stand my ground
No, I won't back down
I won't back down
