Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink motel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot

Don't it always seem to go
But you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged all the people a dollar and a half
just to see 'em

Don't it always seem to go
Said you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Hey farmer, farmer put away the D.D.T.
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees, please! Don't it always seem to go
You don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Late last night I heard that screen door slam again
And the big yellow taxi come and take away my old man

Don't it always seem to go
Said you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Don't it always seem to go
You don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
