[Intro] 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 And 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) [Spoken Word] It don't get any better than that [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Tommy used to work on the docks The union's been on strike, he's down on his luck It's tough So tough Gina works the diner all day She's workin' for her man, to bring home her pay For lovе For love [Pre-Chorus] We'll say, "We'vе gotta hold on to what we've got It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not We got each other and that's a lot for love We'll give it a shot" [Chorus] Oh, we're halfway there (Woah-oh, livin' on a prayer) Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear (Woah-oh, livin' on a prayer) [Verse 2] Tommy's got his six-string in hock Now he's holdin' in, when he used to make it talk So tough So tough, yeah Gina dreams of runnin' away When she cries every night, Tommy whispers "Baby, it's okay Someday" [Pre-Chorus] We gotta 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 So what?
