My First attempt to sing this very famous song in 80s and almost every disco deck will play this song non-stop. I just wanna sing it for fun and try it out. Seem not very bad and I will schedule to learn this song too.

Jon Bon Jovi did not like the original recording of this song, which can be found as a hidden track on 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong.
Richie Sambora, however, convinced him the song was good, and they
reworked it with a new bass line, different drum fills and the use of a talk box to include it on their upcoming album Slippery When Wet. The song spent two weeks at number one on the Mainstream Rock Tracks, from January 31 to February 14, 1987, and four weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, from February 14 to March 14. It also hit number four on the UK singles chart.
The album version of the song, timed around 4:10, fades out at the end. However, the music video game Guitar Hero World Tour
features the song's original studio ending, where the band revisit the
intro riff and end with a talk box solo; this version ends at 4:53. The
original ending is also playable on the similar video game Rock Band 2, though edited in this case (thereby eliminating the talk box solo at the end). The version included on the 2005 DualDisc edition of Slippery When Wet
has an extended version of the original ending, with a different talk
box solo playing over the riff (possibly taken from an outtake of the
song); this version, which fades out at the end like the standard
version of the song, ends at 5:06.
After the September 11, 2001 attacks – in which New Jersey was the second-hardest hit state after New York City, suffering hundreds of casualties among both WTC workers and first responders
– the band performed an acoustic version of this song for New York. Bon
Jovi performed a similar version as part of the special America: A Tribute to Heroes.
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 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
“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”
Tommy's got his six-string in hock
Now he's holding in
What he used to make it talk, so tough
Mm, 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
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, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer”
(Livin' on a prayer)
Ooh, we've got to 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, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Whoa-oh, livin' on a prayer
“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
“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”
