Once upon a time not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck
It's tough, so tough
Gina works the dinner all day
Working for her man
She brings home her pay
For love, for love
She says we've got to hold on to
What we've got
'Cause it doesn't make 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
We're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk
It's tough, so tough
Gina dreams of running away
She cries in the hight
Tommy whispers: baby it's okay someday
We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make 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
We're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Livin' on a prayer
We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight
When it's all that you've got
We're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Livin' on a prayer
