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 diner all day Working for her man, she brings home her pay For love, mmm, 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 got each other and that's a lot For love we'll give it a shot!
Oh, we're half way there Oh oh, livin' on a prayer Take my hand, we'll make it I swear Oh oh, livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six string in hock Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk So tough, mmm, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers "Baby it's okay, someday"
