This is that very song I bank on every morning before dressing up for work. It inspires me when listen to it before stepping out of my house.
Bon Jovi is an American rock band formed in Sayreville, New Jersey in 1983. Released in the year 1986, from the studio album: Slippery When Wet.
The band consists of talented singer Jon Bon Jovi, keyboardist David Bryan, drummer Tico Torres, guitarists John Shanks and Phil X, percussionist Everett Bradley, and bassist Hugh McDonald. What a star studded rock band!!!
As for me, the 80’s wasn’t just a decade, it was an emotion. Some iconic rock voices were just amazing, honestly.
“Livin’ On a Prayer” by Bon Jovi is an iconic rock song about holding on to hope, even when life gets tough.
This is a song talks about hope, struggle and perseverance. It tells the story of two people, Tommy and Gina, who are facing tough times in their lives.
Tommy works on the docks while Gina is a waitress. They both have hard jobs and are trying to make ends meet but things are not easy for them.
Lyrics:
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
Mm, for love
She says, “We’ve 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
We’ll give it a shot”
Whoa, we’re halfway there
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Take my hand, we’ll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Tommy’s got his six-string in hock
Now he’s holding in, when he used to make it talk
So tough
Ooh, it’s tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers
“Baby, it’s okay
Someday”
We’ve 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
We’ll give it a shot
Whoa, we’re halfway there
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Take my hand, we’ll make it I swear
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer, living on a prayer
Ooh, we gotta hold on, ready or not
You live for the fight when that’s all that you’ve got
Whoa, we’re halfway there
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Take my hand and we’ll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Whoa, we’re halfway there
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Take my hand and we’ll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Whoa, we’re halfway there
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
Take my hand and we’ll make it, I swear
Whoa-oh, living on a prayer
…..THE END
