Lyrics
They paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
When 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
Put 'em in a tree museum
Then they charged the people
A dollar and a half to see 'em
Don't it always seem to go
When 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 now
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please
Don't it always seem to go
When 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 the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man
Don't it always seem to go
Then you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Don't it always seem to go
When you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Don't it always seem to go
When you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
