Start me up
Start me up

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union´s been on strike, he´s down on his luck.
It´s tough, oh so tough

We gotta hold on ready or not
You live the for the fight when that´s all that you´ve got

Start me up
We´re half way there
Oh livin´ on a prayer

Start me up
We´ll make it i swear
Oh livin´ on a prayer

If you start me up (uh)
Kick on the starter give it all you got, you got, you got
I can´t compete with riders in the other heat, yeah yeah

I´ll make a grown man cry,
I´ll make a grown man give it a shot

Start me up
We´re half way there
Oh livin´ on a prayer

Start me up
We´ll make it i swear

Oh, livin´ on a prayer

Livin´ on a prayer

(instrumental break)

Oh, we gotta hold on, ready or not
You live for the fight when that´s all that you´ve got

Start me up
Oh, we´re half way there
Oh, livin´ on a prayer
Take my hand, we´ll make it i swear,
Oh livin´ on a prayer

Start me up
If you start me up i´ll never stop (i´ll never stop)
Livin´ on a prayer
Take my hand and we´ll make it i swear
Oh, livin on a prayer

Oh, we´re half way there
Oh, livin´ on a prayer
Take my hand and we´ll make it i swear,
Oh livin´ on a prayer (we´re almost there)

Livin´ on a prayer
You gotta start me up
