  S1:
  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

  S2:
  I'm gonna stand my ground 

  Won't be turned a--round 

  And I'll keep this world from dragging me down 

  Gonna stand my ground 

  And I won't back down (I won't back)

  S3:
  Well, I know what's right 

  And I got just one life 

  In a world that keeps on pushing me around 

  But I'll stand my ground 

  And I won't back down (I won't back)
