I Won't Back Down

If you watched the Super Bowl last night then you probably watched the half-time show featuring Tom Petty & the Heart Breakers. I have always liked his music but never really paid attention to the words until last night when he sang "I Won't Back Down"....the words really touched me....I'm in a good place right now despite the darn kidney stones...lol....anyway....here are the words to the song...the words have many different meanings to different people...I'm choosing to share the words with whomever reads this Blog but not what they mean to me. =)


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

Chorus:(I won't back down...)
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out(and 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
(and I won't back down...)hey
I will stand my ground
(I won't back down)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 won't back down(and I won't back down)
hey baby, there ain't no easy way out(and I won't back down)hey
I will stand my ground(and I won't back down)and I won't back down(I won't back down)
No I won't back down.....
