Verse 1:
             A           D                Em
There's a destination a little up the road from the habitations and the towns we know
   A       Em      D           Bm           A
A place we saw the lights turn low with the jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow
       A              D        Em
Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts two turntables and a microphone
   A       Em    D    Bm    A
Bottles and cans just clap your hands just clap your hands
 
 
Chorus 1:
 
E                    A
Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone
E                    A
Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone
E                    A
Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone
E                    A
Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone
 
["take me home in my elevator bones!"]
 
["that was a good drum break!"]
 
Verse 2:
 
              A          D             Em
Pick yourself up off the side of the road with your elevator bones and your whip-flash tones
  A       Em    D         Bm        A
Members only hyponotizers move through the womb like ambulance drivers
           A               D          Em
Shine your shoes with your microphone blues here suits with your parachute fruits
             A     Em    D    Bm        A
Passing the dutchie from coast to coast let the man get loose while I rock the most
 
 
Chorus 2:
 
E                    A
Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone
E                    A
Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone

Where it's at! I got two turntables and a microphone

Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts two turntables and a microphone

Bottles and cans just clap your hands just clap your hands
