Woke up with a heavy head
|
And I thought about leavin' town
|
I could have died if I wanted to-
|
Slipped over the edge and drowned
|
But, oh no baby, I won't give up so easy
|
|
Too many tire tracks in the sands of time
|
Too many love affairs that stop on a dime
|
I think it's time to make some changes 'round here
|
|
Yeah, I'm gonna tear it up
|
Gonna trash it up
|
I'm gonna round it up
|
Gonna shake it up
|
Oh no baby, I will not lie down
|
|
I'm brave enough to be crazy
|
I'm strong enough to be weak
|
I see all these heroes with feet of clay
|
Whose mighty ships have sprung a leak
|
And I want you to tell me darlin'
|
Just what do you believe in now?
|
|
Well, c'mon over here baby
|
You 'bout to gimme a heart attack
|
I wanna wrap my lovin' arms
|
Around the small of your back
|
Yeah, and I'm gonna pull you, pull you, pull you
|
Pull you right up close to me
|
|
Yeah, we're gonna tear it up
|
We gonna trash it up
|
Gonna round it up
|
Gonna shake it up
|
Oh, no no no, I will not lie down
|
|
Turn this thing around
|
I will not go quietly
|
I will not lie down
|
I will not go quietly
|
I will not lie down
|
I will not go quietly
|
I will not lie down
|
I will not lie down
|
|
Well, don't you ever get lonely?
|
Don't you ever get down?
|
Don't you ever get tired
|
Of all the wicked tongues in this town?
|
Oh baby, I just wanna take you away from here
|
|
I ain't no tiger
|
I ain't no little lamb
|
Suppose you tell me mama
|
Who do you think I think I am?
|
And oooh baby, don't you give a damn?
|
|
Yeah I'm gonna tear it up
|
Gonna trash it up
|
Gonna round it up
|
Gonna shake it up
|
Oh baby I will not lie down
|
Turn this thing around
|
I will not go quietly
|
I will not lie down
|
I will not go quietly
|
I will not lie down
|
I will not go quietly
|
I will not lie down
|
I will not lie down
|

I Will Not Go Quietly
