I Like It Like That

Smokey Robinson

Clap your hands now everybody

we're gonna have some fun tonight

we're gonna sing, shout, knock ourselves out

everything's gonna be alright (alright)



Now let the bassman start playin',

he's gonna come in right on time

he's gonna add a beat to make you pat your feet

everything's gonna work out fine (work 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)

oh, that's where it's at and I like it like that



Now after a man finds hisself a woman

she doesn't have to be a beauty queen

and 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)

oh, I like it like that (oh, I like it like that)

oh, that, I'm trying to tell you (oh, that's where it's at, that's where

it's at, oh, that's where it's at) and 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 just a know one day that you would come my way

and I would fall in love with you



And you could say I like it like that (I like it like that)

oh, I like it like that (oh, I like it like that)

(oh, that's (I'm trying to tell you)where it's at, that's where it's at,

oh that's where it's at) Everybody sing now (fade)(that's where it's at)
