I thought I was done, I thought I could just leave what I'd written and slip away ... . I had to run a few errands and while I was out some new shit 'arrived' .
What follows is the complete lyrics of tom Petty's "Won't Back Down" off his "Full Moon Fever" CD . It has been rolling about my Braine "like a BB in a boxcar", and I can't seem to rid myself of its relentless sting . It SEEMS especially poignant this morning, you guys know why .
"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
Gonna 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
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
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
repeat chorus .
