[Verse 1]
Well, I won't back down
No, I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
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
Oh, I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down (I won't back down)

[Chorus]
Hey, baby
There ain't no easy way out (I won't back down)
Hey, I
I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down

[Verse 2]
Well, I know what's right
I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down (I won't back down)

[Chorus]
Hey, baby
There ain't no easy way out (I won't back down)
Hey, I
I'll stand my ground (I won't back down)
And I won't back down
[Instrumental Break]
(I won't back down)

[Chorus]
Hey, baby
There ain't no easy way out (I won't back down)
Hey, I
I'll stand my ground (I won't back down)
Hey, baby
There ain't no easy way out (I won't back down)
Hey, I
I'll stand my ground (I won't back down)
And I won't back down (I won't back down)
No, I won't back down
