Amy Grant - Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics
They paved paradise and put up a parking lotWith a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spotDont it always seem to goThat you dont know what youve got till its goneThey paved paradise and put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bop, shoo-bop-bop-bopThey took all the trees and put em in a tree museumAnd then they charged all the poeple twenty-five bucks just to see emDont it always seem to goThat you dont know what youve got till its goneThey paved paradise and put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bop, shoo-bop-bop-bopHey farmer, farmer, put away your ddt nowGive me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees, pleaseDont it always seem to goThat you dont know what youve got till its goneThey paved paradise and they put up a parking lotI say, they paved paradise and they put up a parking lotDont it always seem to goThat you dont know what youve got till its goneThey paved paradise and they put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bopLate last night I heard the screen door slamAnd a big yellow taxi carried off my old manDont it always seem to goThat you dont know what youve got till its goneThey paved paradise and they put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bopDont it always seem to goThat you dont know what youve got till its goneThey paved paradise and they put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bopOh, now, they paved paradise and they put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bopHey, steam rolled paradise and put up a parking lotShoo-bop-bop-bop-bop
