Lyrics [orig in Em]
Once upon a time not so long ago
Am 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

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
