Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot...
Don't it always seem to go that you
Don't know what you've got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
They took all the trees and put them 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 that you
Don't know what you've got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Hey farmer farmer put away that DDT.
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always seem to go that you
Don't know what you've got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Late last night I heard a screen door slam,
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man...
Don't it always seme to got that you
Don't know what you've got til it's gone.
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot...
Don't know what you've got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
And they charged all the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em...
Don't know what you've got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't know what you've got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man...
Don't know what you've got til it's gone.
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
