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 stand my ground, won’t be turned around
And I keep this world from dragging me down
Gonna stand my ground, and I won’t back down

Hey, baby, there ain’t no easy way out
Hey, I, will stand my ground,
And I won’t back down

Well, I know what’s right, and I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushing me around
But I stand my ground, and I won’t back down

Hey, baby, there ain’t no easy way out
Hey, I, will stand my ground,
And I won’t back down


Hey, baby, there ain’t no easy way out
Hey, I, won’t back down

Hey, baby, there ain’t no easy way out
Hey, I, will stand my ground,
And I won’t back down, no, I won’t back down
