Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
Shu pa pa pa
Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
Shu pa pa pa
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
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone?
They paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
Shu pa pa
They paved paradise
Shu pa pa pa
You don't know what you've got
Shu pa pa
They paved paradise
Shu pa pa pa
You don't know what you've got
They took all the trees
Put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged 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 till it's gone?
They paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
ย
Hey farmer, farmer
Put away the DDT now
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 till it's gone?
They paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
ย
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
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone?
They paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
Shu pa pa pa
They do care of jackson
Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
Shu pa pa pa
They do care of jackson took away my old man
Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
Shu pa pa pa
They do care of jackson
Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
They do care of jackson took away my old man
Shu pa pa
You don't know what you've got
