Livin' on a Prayer

I’m gonna tell you a little story

From many moons ago

And I ain’t the first to tell it

Tommy used to work on the docks

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

It's tough

Ooh so tough

Gina works the diner all day

Working for her man, she brings home her pay

For love, love, for love

She says we've got to hold on to what we got

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

We've got each other and that's a lot for love (Hey)

Oh, we're halfway there

Woah, livin' on a prayer

Take my hand we'll make it I swear

Woah, livin' on a prayer

Yeah, Tommy's got his six-string in hock

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

So tough (Used to make talk, used to make talk)

Oh, it's tough

Gina dreams of running away

Oh, she cries in the night

Tommy whispers

Baby it's ok, baby it's ok, some day

She says we've got to hold on to what we got

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

We've got each other and that's a lot for love

Oh, we're halfway there

Woah livin' on a prayer

Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

Woah, livin' on a prayer

Livin' on a prayer

Honey, hold on, ready or not

Baby, hold on, ready or not

Darlin’, hold on, ready or not

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

Oh, we're halfway there, woah livin' on a prayer

Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

Woah, livin' on a prayer

Oh, we're halfway there

Woah, livin' on a prayer

Now baby, take my hand, we'll make it I swear

Woah, livin' on a prayer

Whoa-oh-whoa

(Whoa-oh-whoa)

I said, whoa-oh-oh

(Whoa-oh-oh)
