Crossroad Lyrics Livin' On A Prayer 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 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 Keep the Faith Mother mother tell your children That their time has just begun I have suffered for my anger There are wars that can't be won Father father please believe me I am laying down my guns I am broken like an arrow Forgive me Forgive your wayward son Everybody needs somebody to love (mother mother) Everybody need somebody to hate (please believe me) Everybody's bitching 'cause they can't get enough And it's hard to hold on When there's no one to lean on Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain Lord you got to keep the faith Faith: don't let your love turn to hate Right now we got to Keep the faith Keep the faith Keep the faith Lord we got to keep the faith Tell me baby when I hurt you Do you keep it all inside Do you tell me all's forgiven And just hide behind your pride Everybody needs somebody to love (mother, father) Everybody need somebody to hate (please don't leave me) Everybody's bleeding 'cause the times are tough Well it's hard to be strong When there's no one to dream on Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain Lord you got to keep the faith Now you know it's not too late Oh you got to keep the faith Faith: don't let your love turn to hate Keep the faith Keep the faith Keep the faith Lord we got to keep the faith Walking in the footsteps of society's lies I don't like what I see no more Sometimes I wish that I was blind Sometimes I wait forever To stand out in the rain So no one see's my cryin' Trying to wash away the pain Mother father There's things I've done I can't erase Every night we fall from grace It's hard with the world in your face Trying to hold on, trying to hold on Faith: you know you're gonna live thru the rain Lord you got to keep the faith Faith: don't let your love turn to hate Right now we got to keep the faith Faith: now it's not too late Try to hold on, trying to hold on Keep the faith Someday I'll Be Saturday Night Hey, man I'm alive I'm takin' each day a night at a time I'm feelin' like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night Hey, my name is Jim, where did I go wrong My life's a bargain basement, all the good shit's gone I just can't hold a job, where do I belong I'm sleeping in my car, my dreams move on My name is Billie Jean, my love was bought and sold I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old My foster daddy went, took my innocence away The street life aint much better, but at least I'm getting paid And Tuesday just might go my way it can't get worse than yesterday Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind but somehow I'll survive Hey man I'm alive I'm takin' each day a night at a time Yeah I'm down, but I know I'll get by Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night Now I can't say my name, and tell you where I am I want to blow myself away, don't know if I can I wish that I could be in some other time and place With someone else's soul, someone else's face Oh, Tuesday just might go my way it can't get worse than yesterday Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind but somehow I'll survive Hey, man I'm alive I'm takin' each day and night at a time Yeah I'm down, but I know I'll get by Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life I'm gonna pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night Saturday night Here we go Some day I'll be Saturday night I'll be back on my feet, I'll be doin' alright It may not be tomorrow baby, that's OK I ain't goin' down, gonna find a way, hey hey hey Hey man I'm alive I'm takin' each day a night at a time Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by Hey hey hey hey, man, gotta live my life Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night Always This romeo is bleeding But you can't see his blood It's nothing but some feelings That this old dog kicked up It's been raining since you left me Now I'm drowning in the flood You see I've always been a fighter But without you I give up Now I can't sing a love song Like the way it's meant to be Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore But baby, that's just me And I will love you, baby - Always And I'll be there forever and a day - Always I'll be there till the stars don't shine Till the heavens burst and The words don't rhyme And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind And I'll love you - Always Now your pictures that you left behind Are just memories of a different life Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry One that made you have to say goodbye What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair To touch your lips, to hold you near When you say your prayers try to understand I've made mistakes, I'm just a man When he holds you close, when he pulls you near When he says the words you've been needing to hear I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine To say to you till the end of time Yeah, I will love you baby - Always And I'll be there forever and a day - Always If you told me to cry for you I could If you told me to die for you I would Take a look at my face There's no price I won't pay To say these words to you Well, there ain't no luck In these loaded dice But baby if you give me just one more try We can pack up our old dreams And our old lives We'll find a place where the sun still shines And I will love you, baby - Always And I'll be there forever and a day - Always I'll be there till the stars don't shine Till the heavens burst and The words don't rhyme And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind And I'll love you - Always Wanted Dead Or Alive 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 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 And 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 Lay Your Hands On Me If you're ready, I'm willing and able Help me lay my cards out on the table You're mine and I'm yours for the taking Right now the rules we made Are meant for breaking What you get ain't always What you see But satisfaction's guaranteed They say what you give is always What you need So if you want me to Lay my hands on you Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me I'm a fighter, I'm a poet I'm a preacher I've been to school and Baby, I've been the teacher If you show me how to get Up off

on you Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Lay your hands on me Solo Don't you know I only aim to please If you want me to lay My hands on you Lay your hands on me You Give Love A Bad Name 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 Bed Of Roses Sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano Trying hard to capture the moment this morning I don't know 'Cause a bottle of vodka is still lodged in my head and some blonde gave me nightmares I think that she's still in my bed As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead With an ironclast fist I wake up and French kiss the morning While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head While we're talking About all of the things that I long to believe About love and the truth and what you mean to me And the truth is baby you're all that I need I want to lay you down on a bed of roses For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is And lay you down on a bed of roses Well I's so far away That each step that I take is on my way home A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night Just to see through this payphone Still I run out of time Or it's hard to get through Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you I'll just close my eyes and whisper, baby blind love is true I want to lay you down on a bed of roses For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is And lay you down on a bed of roses The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry The barkeeper's wig's crooked And she's giving me the eye I might have said yeah But I laughed so hard I think I died When you close your eyes Know I'll be thinking about you While my mistress she calls me To stand in her spotlight again Tonite I won't be alone But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove For it's you that I'd die to defend I want to lay you down on a bed of roses For tonite I sleep on a bed of nails I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is And lay you down on a bed of roses Blaze Of Glory I wake up in the morning And I raise my weary head I've got an old coat for a pillow And the earth was last night's bed I don't know where I'm going Only God knows where I've been I'm a devil on the run a six gun lover A candle in the wind When you're brought into this world They say you're born in sin Well at least they gave me something I didn't have to steal or have to win Well they tell me that I'm wanted Yeah, I'm a wanted man I'm a colt in your stable I'm what Cain was to Abel Mister catch me if you can I'm going out in a blaze of glory Take me now but know the truth I'm going out in a blaze of glory Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood I'm no one's son call me young gun You ask about my conscience And I offer you my soul You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man Well I ask if I'll grow old You ask me if I've known love And what it's like to sing songs in the rain Well, I've seen love come And I've seen it shot down I've seen it die in vain Shot down in a blaze of glory Take me now but know the truth 'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood I'm the devil's son Call me young gun Each night I go to bed I pray the Lord my soul to keep No I ain't looking for forgiveness But before I'm six foot deep Lord, I got to ask a favor And hope you'll understand 'Cause I've lived life to the fullest Let this boy die like a man Staring down a bullet Let me make my final stand Shot down in a blaze of glory Take me now but know the truth I'm going out in a blaze of glory Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood And I'm no one's son Call me young gun I'm a young gun Livin' On A Prayer 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

chance, girl I'll be there for you These five words I swear to you When you breathe I want to Be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you Steal the sun from the sky for you

up when you've had enough You been burned baby lessons learned In and out of love Hear what I'm sayin' In and out of love It's the way that we're playing In and out of love Too much is never enough She's gonna get ya. Running wild When me and my boys hit the streets Right on time She's here to make my night complete Then I'm long gone I got another show There's one more town, one mile to go One endless night of fantasy Was all she left of her with me In and out of love Hear what I'm sayin' In and out of love The way that we're playing In and out of love When we're together In and out of love It's too much forever In and out of love Hear what I'm saying In and out of love It's the way that we're playing In and out of love Too much is never enough She's gonna get you... In and out of love. Runaway On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives. They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable in their eyes. (All your life) All your life all you've asked when's your Daddy gonna talk to you. You were living in another world tryin' to get your message through. No one heard a single word you said. They should have seen it in your eyes what was going around your heart. Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast all those things he couldn't say. Ooh, she's a little runaway. A different line every night guaranteed to blow your mind. See you out on the streets, call me for a wild time. So you sit home alone 'cause there's nothing left that you can do. There's only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look at you. You know she likes the lights at nights on the neon Broadway signs She don't really mind, it's only love she hoped to find. Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast all those things he couldn't say. Ooh, she's a little runaway. No one heard a single word she said. They should have seen it in your eyes what was going around your heart. Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast all those things he couldn't say. Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast, now she works the night away. Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast all those things he couldn't say. Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast, now she works the night away.
