What Do You Got? (II)
You can download the version from BonJovi.com here. It doesn't have all the PLJ yapping that the earlier download I listed had.
Thanks to Lisa and LeeAnn for listing out the lyrics:
Everybody wants something, just a little more
We're makin' a living and what we're living for
Rich man or a poor man, a pawn or a king
You can live on the street, you can rule the whole world
But it don't mean one damn thing
What do you got if you ain't got love?
Whatever you got, it just ain't enough
You're walkin' a road but you're goin' nowhere
Tryin' to find your way home but there's no one there
Who do you hold in the dark of night?
You wanna give up but it's worth the fight
You can have all the things that you've been dreaming of
If you ain't got someone you're afraid to lose
Everybody needs just one someone to tell them the truth
Maybe I'm a dreamer but I still believe
I believe in hope, I believe that change can get us up off our knees
What do you got if you ain't got love?
Whatever you got just ain't enough
You're walkin' a road but you're goin' nowhere
Tryin' to find your way home but there's no one there
Who do you hold in the dark of night?
You wanna give up but it's worth the fight
You can have all the things that you've been dreaming of
If you ain't got love, it's all just keepin' score
If you ain't got love, what the hell we doin' it for?
I don't wanna have to talk about it
How many songs I gotta sing about it?
How long you gonna live without it?
Why does someone somewhere have to doubt it?
Someday you'll figure it out
What do you got if you ain't got love?
Whatever you got, it just ain't enough
You walk on that road but you're goin' nowhere
Tryin' to find your way home but there's no one there
Who do you hold in the dark of night?
You wanna give up but it's worth the fight
You can have all the things that you've been dreaming of
If you ain't got love, it's all just keepin' score
If you ain't got love, what the hell we doin' it for?
(Whoa oh oh oh) Ohh, what do you got if you ain't got love?
(Whoa oh oh oh) Ohh, what do you got if you ain't got love?
(Whoa oh oh oh) Ohh, what do you got if you ain't got love?
(Whoa oh oh oh)
I've given it a bunch more listens, and I have to say, I like it. It does sound a bit over-produced, but the vocals are perfect (as per usual). The solo could have been a bit more "spectacular", but it's got a nice chorus, a good solid intro -- I like it.

I like it. I've only listened to it a couple of times, but it is still sticking in my head. I think it's radio-friendly, and Jon sounds great. It'll be in my iPod rotation.
I'd still love an old-school, heart-thumping, stadium-shaking rocker, though, too.
Heard it for the first time tonight thanks to Tre. I actually like it and have to agree with you Hath it sounds like a circle reject word wise. Love the harmony and the solo could have been a little harder, but its a catchy tune and I agree it is radio friendly. will have to actually listen to Ace and Tj to hear it on the radio.
Funny found this radio station that I can only get on the weekends and they are playing Bad Name just now.
