Livin' On a Prayer Lyrics - Bon Jovi

1 "Once upon a time...

2 Not so long ago."

3 Tommy used to work on the docks

4 Union's been on strike

5 He's down on his luck, it's tough

6 So tough

7 Gina works the diner all day

8 Working for her man

9 She brings home her pay for love

10 Mmm, for love

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

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

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

14 We'll give it a shot!

15 Whoa, we're halfway there

16 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

17 Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

18 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

19 Tommy's got his six-string in hock

20 Now he's holding in

21 What he used to make it talk so tough

22 Mmm, it's tough

23 Gina dreams of running away

24 When she cries in the night,

25 Tommy whispers, "Baby it's okay

26 Someday"

27 We've got to hold on to what we've got

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

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

30 We'll give it a shot!

31 Whoa, we're halfway there

32 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

33 Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

34 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

35 Livin' on a prayer!

36 Oh, we've got to hold on ready or not

37 You live for the fight when that's all that you've got

38 Whoa, we're halfway there

39 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

40 Take my hand and we'll make it I swear

41 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

42 Whoa, we're halfway there

43 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

44 Take my hand and we'll make it I swear

45 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

46 Whoa, we're halfway there

47 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

48 Take my hand and we'll make it I swear

49 Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
