"Don't Back Down" lyrics
"Don't Back Down"
If you're out on your own, and you ain't got a home
And it feels like the whole world's just gonna fall on you
You're just running scared
Look around, there's nothing there
And you ain't got the strength, and your friends all just stall on you
A roar comes up loud
And you're lost in the crowd
Once you thought you might make it, but babe, these days you doubt it
If you need a hand
Honey, I understand
Just stand on up, yeah, stand up and shout it
Girl
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Now you see all the ones, worn out and tired
There's a fool, all broken down by the wayside
With two hearts, call out for hire
Filled with hurt, defeated by their foolish pride
Girl, you hear the sound of a one comin' down
And you don't think that, these days, you can make it, babe
Just step on up, I'll give a hand
And if you ain't got a problem
Well, maybe we can share it, baby
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down, baby
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down, baby
Don't back down, don't
Baby, don't back down, don't
Baby, don't back down, don't
If you're out on your own, and you ain't got a home
And it feels like the whole world's just gonna fall on you
You're just running scared
Look around, there's nothing there
And you ain't got the strength, and your friends all just stall on you
Well, a roar comes up loud
And you're lost in the crowd
Once you thought you might make it, babe, but these days you doubt it
I understand
If you need a helping hand
Baby, don't be afraid, just stand up and shout it, girl
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down, baby
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down, baby
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down, baby
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down
Don't back down, don't back down

INXS - "Beautiful Girl" Nicky's in the corner
With a black coat on
Running from a bad home
With some cat inside
Now where did you find her
Among the neon lights
That haunt the streets outside
She said, stay with me...
Dire Straits - "Romeo And Juliet" A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"...
Fine Young Cannibals - "Suspicious Minds" We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious...
Peter Frampton - "Show Me The Way" I wonder how you're feeling
There's ringing in my ears
And no one to relate to 'cept the sea
Who can I believe in?
I'm kneeling on the floor
There has to be a force
Who do I phone?
The stars are out...
Tears For Fears - "Sowing The Seeds Of Love" High time we made a stand
And shook up the views of the common man
And the love train rides from coast to coast
DJ's the man we love the most
Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
And smash any...
