|

|
|
|
Gina work the dinner all day |
|
Working for her man. She brings home hre pay |
|
|
|
|
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. |
|
|
|
Woooo, we're halfway there, wooo, livin' on a prayer. |
|
Take my hand we'll make it, I swear |
|
|
|
Tommy's got his six string in hock, |
|
now he's holding in, what he used to make it talk |
|
So though, it's so though. |
|
|
Gina dreams of running away |
|
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers: |
|
Baby it's O.K., some day. |
|
|
|
We've got to hold on .... |
|
|
Woooo, we're halfway there, wooo, livin' on a prayer. |
|
Take my hand we'll make it, I swear |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Oooooooooh, we've got to hold on, ready or not |
|
|
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got. |
|
|
Woooooo, we're half ---- way there |
|
Woooooo, livin' on a prayer |
|
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear |
