Livin’ on a Prayer Lyrics

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union´s went on strike
He´s down on his luck...it´s tough,ohh so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love - ohhh 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 shout

Ohhhhh We´re half way there
Ohhhhh Livin' On A Prayer
Take my hand- we´ll make it - I swear
Ohhhhh Livin' On A Prayer

Tommy got a six string in hock
Now he´s holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, ohhh so tough
Gina dreams of running away
She cries in the night
He said: Baby it´s okay, someday
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 shout
Ohhhhh We´re half way there
Ohhhhh Livin' On A Prayer
Take my hand- we´ll make it - I swear
Ohhhhh Livin' On A Prayer

Ohhhhh We´re half way there
Ohhhhh Livin' On A Prayer
Take my hand- we´ll make it - I swear
Ohhhhh Livin' On A Prayer
Livin' On A Prayer

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
