Livin' On A Prayer

Once upon a time
Not so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck
It's 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've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot

Oh, we're half way there
Oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it, I swear
Oh, 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
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers
Baby it's okay, someday

We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot

Oh, we're half way there
Oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it, I swear
Oh, livin' on a prayer
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

Oh, we're half way there
Oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it, I swear
Oh, livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer

Oh, we're half way there
Oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it, I swear
Oh, livin' on a prayer

Oh, we're half way there
Oh, we're livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it, I swear
Oh, livin' on a prayer
