Here are the lyrics:
Chorus
The devil don’t like it , but I’m
Blessed like that
The devil don’t like it, but I’m
Blessed like that
The devil don’t like it, but I’m
Blessed like that
Blessed like that
Blessed like that
Repeat Chorus
Verse 1
Growing up in this world
It started out a long time ago
Mama and them use to pray
While we was gathered around the wooden floor
She grabbed us one by one
I heard her praying til the pray was done
Mama would dance while clapping her hands
Knowing that victory was won
Repeat Chorus 2x
Verse 2
Now I’ve grown little older now
Seems like folks a little colder now
So much trouble in these last days
But the devil can’t steal my praise
I’m covered from head to toe
And the devil don’t know where to go
God blessing that’s a fact
He’s got my front, he’s got my back, and I’m blessed like that
Repeat Chorus 2x
Like that, Blessed Like that
Like that, Blessed Like that
Like that, Blessed Like that
Like that, Blessed Like that
Ad lib part
Blessed like that
Are you blessed like that
I’ve been blessed like that
I’m blessed like that
Anybody blessed like that
So glad he blessed me
Not cursed me
I’ve been blessed
Did he wake you up this morning
Were you in your right mine
Did you limbs start to move
Heart beat on time
Open you eyes you could see
Open your mouth you could speak
With your nose you could smell
With your ears you could hear
….. chord change
Was there a roof over your head
And shoes on your feet
Clothes on your back
And food to eat
He’s bread when you’re hungry
Pay your bills, when there is no money
He’s a rock in a weary land
…. Chord change
If God been good to you,
Let me tell you what you ought to do
Give him praise, clap your hands,
Clear a spot for a dance
He’s God just like that
Yes he is, and that’s a fact
Lord I praise you
Keep on blessing me just like that
