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 luckit's tough
so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man
she brings hom her pay
For love for love
She say
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
We're half way 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
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
We're half way 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 half way there
Livin on a prayer
Take my hand and
we'll make it I swear
Livin on a prayer
We're half way there
Livin on a prayer
Take my hand and
we'll make it I swear
Livin on a prayer
