I Will No Got Quietly Lyrics - Don Henley

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? 

Of, 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 ooh baby, don't you give a damn? 

Yeah, I'm gonna tear it up 

gonna trash it up 

gonna round it up 

gonna rip it up 

I will not lie down 

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 lie down
