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
It's tough
So tough
Gina works
The diner all day
Working for her man
She brings home
Her pay for love
Oooh 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've got each other
And that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot
Woah we're
Half way there
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
We'll make it I swear
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his
Six string in hock
Now he's holding in
When he used
To make it talk
So tough
Ooh it's tough
Gina dreams of
Running away
When she cries
In the night
Tommy whispers
Baby it's okay
Some day
We've got to 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 that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot
Woah we're
Half way there
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
We'll make it I swear
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
Ooh we've got to hold on
Ready or not
You live for the fight
When that's all
That you've got
Woah we're
Half way there
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it
I swear
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Woah we're
Half way there
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand
And we'll make it
I swear
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
Woah we're
Half way there
Woah-oh
Livin' on a prayer
