Ghostface Killah
Dedicated
[Intro: Steve Stoute + Mariah Carey]
That summer... the summer '88 is the best...
But that's your nostalgia though
"Just for the nostalgia," you gotta say
That's my most nostalgic moment of hip-hop music ever
Right

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]
I'll just sit right here and sing that good old school shit to ya
I won't fool ya, I won't make you be my own
Oh baby you know, all that lovemaking we did, boy
It was so real I wanna feel that again

[Pre-Chorus 1: Mariah Carey]
Long lost friend from way back when
Eric B was president
Tell me where the melody went
And if you still care, say yeah, yeah, yeah
Sing it like I used to do, this one is for me to you, oh

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
La di da di da di da
That's how you do it
That's how to make it okay
Oh baby you know
Make love, that’s how you do it
Just like you did it back then
Well, this is dedicated to you
[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
I'll just sit right here and sing that good old school shit to ya
I won't fool ya, I won't make you be my own
Oh baby you know, all that love making we did
Boy it was so real I wanna feel that again

[Pre-Chorus 2: Mariah Carey]
And all your friends from way back then
Tell me can you visualize
36 Chambers high
It feels like we’re there, yeah yeah yeah
Remix of a Fantasy, I hear ‘em singing back to me like

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
La di da di da di da
That's how you do it
That's how to make it okay
Oh baby you know
Make love, that’s how you do it
Just like you did it back then
Well, this is dedicated to you

[Verse 3: Nas]
Nah, we don’t wish today’s game was old again
We just wish it wasn’t full of Draconian, Babylonian, phony men
FOH my summation fascinates, we have debates
Who’s the greatest, living or passed away
I ask MC, see what she has to say
Eric B or Master P, some see it differently
‘87 meant to me? I try to describe it, you try to relive it
I try to revive it, hoping that you get it, yeah
Something about "La Di Da Di" got inside our bodies
Something about "My Adidas" coming out the speakers
Used to do Doo-wop or the Pee-Wee Herman
Rest in peace Heavy D, "Moneyearnin’ Mount Vernon"
Let’s go
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
La di da di da di da
That's how you do it
That's how to make it okay
Oh baby you know
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
Oh baby you know

[Hook: Mariah Carey]
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
Oh baby you know

[Hook: Mariah Carey]
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
Oh baby you know

[Hook: Mariah Carey]
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
This is dedicated to you
Oh baby you know
