Once upon a time, not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
The union went on strike
He's down on his luck, it's tough
Whoa, it's tough
Gina works the dollar on eight
Working for her man
She brings home her pay for love
Whoa, for love
Said we've got to hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if you make it or not
You've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot
Whoa, we're halfway there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six-string in hock
Now he's outta band
But he used to make it talk so tough
It's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers, "Gina, it's okay."
Someday
You know we've got to hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if you make it or not
You've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot
Whoa, we're halfway there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
You've got to hold on, ready or not
Live for the fight, all that you've got
Whoa, we're halfway there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Whoa, we're halfway there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
