Let It Rock(Jon Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora)
You Give Love A Bad Name(Jon
Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora/Desmond Child)
An angel's smile is what you sell You promise me heaven, then put me through hell Chains of love got a hold on me When passion's a prison, you can't break free You're a loaded gun There's nowhere to run No one can save me The damage is done Shot through the heart And you're to blame You give love a bad name I play my part and you play your game You give love a bad name You give love a bad name You paint your smile on your lips Blood red nails on your fingertips A school boy's dream, you act so shy Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye You're a loaded gun There's nowhere to run No one can save me The damage is done Shot through the heart and you're to blame You give love a bad name I play my part and you play your game You give love a bad name Livin' On A Prayer(Jon
Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora/Desmond 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 hom 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" We're half way there Livin' on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear 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 We're half way there Livin' on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear Livin' on a prayer We've got to hold on ready or not You live for the fight when it's all that you've got We're half way there Livin' on a prayer Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear Livin' on a prayer Social Disease
(Jon Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora)
You can read it in the papers In some places it comes in thirty-two flavors But you wouldn't tell no one your favorite If you could From the White House to the alleys From the President down to Long Tall Sally Can't live with it but you'll die without it Yes you would Senorita's in the kitchen She's a fistful of dynamite You call 911 but you Can't stop the fun tonite, it's alright You can't start a fire without a spark But there's something that I guarantee You can't hide when infection starts Because love is a social disease Where you look you can find it Try to run but you're always behind it So you play hide and seek like a blind kid Till you're caught - yeah you're caught So you'll say that you had some But they took it and held it for ransom Were they tall, dark, skinny or handsome You won't talk So you telephone your doctor Just to see what pill to take You know there's no prescription Gonna wipe this one away You can't start a fire without a spark But there's something that I guarantee You can't hide when infection starts Because love is a social disease She's so full of high grade octane She could run the bullet train on 38 double d's Now you know for sure, you know the cure To make a blind man see Wanted Dead Or Alive(Jon
Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora)
It's all the same, only the names will change Everyday it seems we're wasting away Another place where the faces are so cold I'd drive all night Just to get back home I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days And people I meet always go their separate ways Sometimes you tell the day By the bottle that you drink And times when you're all alone all you do is think I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back I been everywhere, still I'm standing tall I've seen a million faces And I've rocked them all I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive Raise Your Hands(Jon
Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora) Raise
your hands Without Love(Jon
Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora/Desmond Child)
She wasn't young, but still a child There still was innocence in painted smiles She called to me as I passed her by Lady of the night looked in my eyes She said| "I been through some changes But one thing always stays the same" Without love, there's nothing without love Nothing else can get you through the night Nothing else feels right Without love I saw a man down on lonely street A broken man who looked like me And no one knows the pain that he's been living He lost his love and still hasn't forgiven He said| "I've been through some changes But one thing always stays the same" Without love, there's nothing without love Nothing else can get you through the night Nothing else feels right without love There's nothing without love Nothing else but love can burn as bright And nothing would mean nothing without love I see my life There's some things I took for granted Love's passed me by So many second chances I was afraid But I won't be afraid no more Without love, there's nothing without love Nothing else can get you through the night Nothing else feels right without love There's nothing without love Nothing else but love can burn as bright And nothing would mean nothing without love I'd Die For You(Jon
Bon Jovi/Richie Sambora/Desmond Child)
If you could see inside my heart Then you would understand I'd never mean to hurt you Baby I'm not that kind of man I might not say I'm sorry Yeah, I might talk rough sometimes And I might forget the little things Or keep you hanging on the line In a world that don't know Romeo and Juliet Boy meets girl and promises we can't forget We are cast from Eden's gate with no regrets Into the fire we cry I'd die for you I'd cry for you I'd do anything I'd lie for you You know it's true Baby I'd die for you I'd die for you I'd cry for you If it came right down to me and you You know it's true, Baby I'd die for you I might not be a savior And I'll never be a king I might not send you roses Or buy you diamond rings But if I could see inside you Maybe I'd know just who we are 'Cause our love is like a hunger Without it we would starve In a world that don't know Romeo and Juliet Boy meets girl and promises we can't forget We are cast from Eden's gate with no regrets Into the fire we cry I'd die for you I'd cry for you I'd do anything I'd lie for you You know it's true Baby I'd die for you I'd die for you I'd cry for you If it came right down to me and you You know it's true, Baby I'd die for you Never Say Goodbye(Jon
Bon Jovi/ Richie Sambora)
As I sit in this smokey room The night about to end I pass my time with strangers But this bottle's my only friend Remember when we used to park On Butler Street out in the dark Remember when we lost the keys And you lost more than that in my backseat Remember when we used to talk About busting out - we'd break their hearts Together - forever Never say goodbye, never say goodbye You and me and my old friends Hoping it would never end Never say goodbye, never say goodbye Holdin' on - we got to try Holdin' on to never say goodbye Remember days of skipping school Racing cars and being cool With a six pack and the radio We didn't need no place to go Remember at the prom that night You and me we had a fight But the band they played our favorite song And I held you in my arms so strong We danced so close We danced so slow And I swore I'd never let you go Together - forever Never say goodbye, never say goodbye You and me and my old friends Hoping it would never end Never say goodbye, never say goodbye Holdin' on - we got to try Holdin' on to never say goodbye I guess you'd say we used to talk About busting out We'd break their hearts Together - forever Wild In The Streets(Jon
Bon Jovi)
Joey comes from a sacred part of town Where sometimes you talk so tough That your feet don't touch the ground And the sidewalk soldiers sing their midnite blues While the old men recite their story lines About when I was young like you They say| Oh yeah We were cruising to the backbeat Oh yeah, Making love in the backseats We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets A member of the boy's brigade Had a date with the girl next door You know it made her daddy crazy But it only made her want him more They weren't looking for trouble You know that boy didn't want a fight - not tonight So she headed out thru her bathroom window What her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright They said| Oh yeah We were cruising to the backbeat Oh yeah, Making love in the backseat We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Sometimes this town ain't pretty But you know it ain't so bad Just like a girl who looks so happy When inside she's so sad In here we got this code of honor Nobody's going down You don't walk in vain Through the kid's parade 'Cause this is my hometown ====================== all lyrics copyright 1986 |
