This song rocks so much, and is one of my favourite songs ever!


(J. Bon Jovi, R. Sambora, D. Child)

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 diner 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 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

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh. livin' on a prayer

Tommy got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk so tough, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers: Baby it's okay, someday

We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause 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

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

(amazing Richie guitar solo)

We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer

(Repeat till end)



So come now, and let's discuss this amazingly awesome song.

I love the lyrics.

"We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not"

Y'know, they could beat this song with a stick and change every 4th word to "butter" and the song would still rock.

I have about 4 different versions of this on my computer....plus a video clip of it from the concert I was at, and the music video.....and I think I have another live performance too. xd

Tommy used to -butter- on the docks
-butter-'s been on strike
-butter-'s down on his -butter-
It's tough
So -butter-


See see, what did I tell ya? I just need to find me a song beatin' stick to further proove my point [thought I'm pretty sure it has made itself quite clear]

As for versions of this song... wow, I have too many.
I know of the original, demo, TLFR, and 6 live versions.
Not to mention the videos of course. The acoustic performances. The Tributes. Damn, I could go on forever heart
