Livin On A Prayer lyrics
Songwriters: Bongiovi, Jon; Sambora, Richard; Child, Desmond;

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, mmm, for love

She says we ve got to hold on to what we ve got
It doesn t make a difference if we make it or not
We got each other and that s a lot
For love we ll give it a shot!

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

Tommy s got his six string in hock
Now he s holding in what he used to make it talk
So tough, mmm, it s tough

Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers
"Baby it s okay, someday"

We gotta hold on to what we ve got
It doesn t make a difference if we make it or not
We got each other and that s a lot
For love we ll give it a shot!

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

We gotta hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it s all that you ve got

Whoa, we re half way there
Whoa oh, livin on a prayer
Take my hand and we ll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin on a prayer

Whoa, we re half way there
Whoa oh, livin on a prayer
Take my hand and we ll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin on a prayer

Whoa, we re half way there
Whoa oh, livin on a prayer
Take my hand and we ll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin on a prayer
