Livin' on a Prayer Lyrics

Alvin:Two,three,four.

Verse 1:
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,for love.

Pre-Chorus:
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"

Chorus:
Whooah,we're half way there(ooh)
Livin' on a prayer.
Take my hand and well make it,I swear.(ooh)
Livin' on a prayer.
On a prayer.

Verse 2:
Tommy's got his six string in hock.
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk so tough(so tough).
Gina dreams of running away.
When she cries in the night,
Tommy whispers,"Baby its okay,someday."

But now 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
(Repeat "Chorus")

Livin' on a prayer.

Theodore:Kick it,Simon.

*guitar solo*

We've got to hold on,ready or not.
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

(Repeat "Chorus")

Livin' on a prayer,livin' on a prayer.
Livin' on a prayer,livin' on a prayer.

Alvin:Thank you,good night.
