MAVIS STAPLES
"Dedicated"

Down the road we walked
Down the road we talked
I remember when
I made war with you
I made peace with you
That's what makes you my friend
And if it's us against the world
Well I would bet on us
To come out on top
But if you go yours and I go mine
All bets are off

This is dedicated
This one's dedicated to you
This one's because we made it
This one's because we made it through

There was a time I thought
Half the friends you got
Were counterfeit at best
And you thought it wasn't right
How I lived my life
But time put those doubts to rest
And if it's us against the world
And still I would bet on us
To come out on top
But if you go your way and I go mine
All bets are off

This is dedicated
This one's dedicated to you
This one's because we made it
This one's because we made it through

This is dedicated
This one's dedicated to you
This one's because we made it
This one's because we made it through

This is dedicated
This one is dedicated to you
Oh, you
This one's because we made it
One because we made it through

Down the road we walked
Down the road we talked
I remember when
