Big Country - Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics
They paved paradise, put up a parking lotWith a pink motel, boutique, and a swinging hot spotDon't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you've got till it's goneThey paved paradise, put up a parking lotThey took all the trees, put 'em in a tree museumAnd they charged all the peopleA dollar and a half just to seem themDon't it always seem to goSaid you don't know what you've got till it's goneThey paved paradise, put up a parking lotSay hey farmer, farmer put away the DDT nowAnd the spots on my applesLeave me the birds and the bees, pleaseDon't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you've got till it's goneThey paved paradise, put up a parking lotLate last night I heard that screen door slamAnd the big yellow taxi took my girl awayDon't it always seem to gobut you don't know what you've got till it's goneThey paved paradise, put up a parking lotDon't it always seem to goYou don't know what you've got till it's goneThey paved paradise, put up a parking lotThey paved paradise, put up a parking lotThey paved paradise, put up a parking lot
