Pearl Jam - I Won't Back Down

No, I won't back down (2x)
You can stand me up at the gates of Hell, but I won't back down

I will stand my ground, won't be turned around
I will keep my world from draggin' me down, I won't back down
No, I won't back down

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

Oh, I know what' sright, I got just one life
I will keep this world from pushin' me around, I'll stand my ground
No, I won't back down

Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out }
Hey, I will stand my ground } (2x)
And I won't back down }

And I won't back down, no I won't back down

Tom petty is the man....dont get me wrong but this is an excellent cover of this song. I purchased the gorge box set a little over a year ago and of course was jammin rather loudly to it when this song played....it gave me goosebumps and the hair on the back of my head stood up it was that good.....my humble opinion only.

[EgoCheck616]

Heh. I felt the same way.

[powertoanime]

nice song only thing: your lyrics in the  side are different from what he sings

[EgoCheck616]

That's because those are the lyrics to the original song.

Of course the live version will be different.

I dedicate this to my mother. She never gets a break. Ever. If she needs to do something it's always gotta be the hard way, because the people she needs most turn their backs on her. All her life she's fought, and she still fights for everything she has. Thanks mum <3

This is my "it's gonna be okay" song.

@jonusa71 Search for the vid of Tom and Eddie singing it together. Petty straight says that Vedder sings this song better than he does.

[kiloggolik]

Eddie Vedder can sing anything, especially Tom Petty..
