I Won't Back Down - Live from Saturday Night Live

I'm Jason Aldean.

This week we witnessed one of the worst tragedies in American history.

Like everyone, I'm struggling to understand what happened that night

And how to pick up the pieces and heal.

So many people are hurting.

There are children, parents, brothers, sisters, friends.

They're all part of our family.

So I wanna say to them: we hurt for you, and we hurt with you.

But you can be sure that we're gonna walk through these tough times together every step of the way.

Because when America is at its best, our bond, and our spirit it's unbreakable.

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

(I won't back down)

Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out

(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

(I won't back down)

Hey, I will stand my ground

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 will stand my ground

(I won't back down)

Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out

(I won't back down)

Hey, I will stand my ground

And I won't back down

No, we won't back down
