Livin On a Prayer

Once upon a time ... not so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docks

Unions been on strike, he's down on his luck

Its tough ... so tough

Gina works the diner all day

Working for her man, she brings home her pay

For love ... for love

She says: We gotta hold on to what we've got

It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not

We've got each other, and thats a lot

For love ... we'll give it a shot

We're halfway there

Livin' on a prayer

Take my hand, and we'll make it, I swear

Livin' on a prayer

Tommy got his six string in hock

Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk

So tough ... it's tough

Gina dreams of running away

She cries in the nightime, Tommy whispers:

Baby it's okay, someday

We've gotta hold on to what we've got

It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not

We've got each other, and thats a lot

For love ... we'll give it a shot

We're halfway there

Livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear

Livin' on a prayer

We've got to hold on

Ready or not

You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

We're halfway there

Livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear

Livin' on a prayer ...
