I Won’t Back Down Lyrics

Oh, 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 won't back down
Won't be turned around
In a world that keeps pushing me around
I'm gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down

I won't back down, baby
There ain't no easy way out
I will stand my ground
And I won't back down

Cause I know what's right
I've got just one life
In a world that keeps on dragging me down
Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down

Hey baby
There ain't no easy way out
Hey, ah, I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
No, I won't back down

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
