Clap your hands now, everybody
We're gonna have some fun tonight
We're gonna sing, shout
An' knock ourselves out
Every thing's gonna be alright
(Alright)

Now let the bass man start playin'
He's gonna come in right on time
He's gonna add a beat
To make you pat your feet
Every thing's gonna work out fine
(Out fine)

And he can say I like it like that
(I like it like that)
I like it like that
(I like it like that)
That's where it's at
An' I like it like that

Now after a man finds his self a woman
She doesn't have to be a beauty queen
An' then she holds you tight
She makes you feel alright
Any man that I've ever seen

He's got to say, I like it like that
(I like it like that)
I like it like that
(I like it like that)
That, I'm tryin' to tell you
(That's where it's at, that's where it's at)
That's where it's at an' I like it like that

I like it like that
(I like it like that)
I like it like that
(I like it like that)
I like it like that
(I like it like that)

Now, I know why my mama
Taught me to be true
She must've known one day
That you would come my way
An' I would fall in love with you

An' you could say I like it like that
(I like it like that)
I like it like that
(I like it like that)
That's where it's at, that's where it's at
(I'm tryin' to tell you)
That's where it's at

An' everybody sing now
That's where it's at, that's where it's at
That's where it's at
