Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
Don't back down don't back down
From that wave
I used to laugh when I saw a surfer go under
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
Until I tried it and my ears sounded just like thunder
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
I know what it's like when you feel like backing 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
From that wave
It's just as scary as it looks and it's rough enough now
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
And if you're any kind of athlete you're tough enough now
(Don't back down don't back down) (di di di di)
You're gonna find out when you start backing 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
From that wave
