The song is indeed "Livin' On A Prairie" as opposed to what most people think it is "Livin' On A Prayer". In a televised interview with Jon Bon Jovi he stated that the real name of the song was "Livin' On A Prairie" and that the lyrics posted all over the internet were wrong.

These are the lyrics to the song:

Once upon a timeNot so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docksUnions been on strikeHes down on his luck...its tough, so toughGina works the diner all dayWorking for her man, she brings home her payFor love - for love

She says weve got to hold on to what weve gotcause it doesnt make a differenceIf we make it or notWeve got each other and that's a lotFor love - well give it a shot

Chorus:Whooah, were half way thereLivin on a prairieTake my hand and well make it - I swearLivin on a prairie

Tommys got his six string in hockNow hes holding in what he usedTo make it talk - so tough, its toughGina dreams of running awayWhen she cries in the nightTommy whispers baby its okay, someday

Weve got to hold on to what weve gotcause it doesnt make a differenceIf we make it or notWeve got each other and that's a lotFor love - well give it a shot

Chorus:Whooah, were half way thereLivin on a prairieTake my hand and well make it - I swearLivin on a prairie

Weve got to hold on ready or notYou live for the fight when its all that you've got

Chorus:Whooah, were half way thereLivin on a prairieTake my hand and well make it - I swearLivin on a prairie
