Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics


They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot spotDon't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got til its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lotThey took all the trees
And put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people
A dollar and a half to seem 'emNo no no
Don't it always seem to go,
That you don't know what you've got
Til its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lotHey farmer farmer
Put away the DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples
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 its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Hey, now they paved paradise
To put up a parking lot
Why not?Listenin' late last night
I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi
Took my girl away
Now, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Til its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lotHey now, now
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got
Til its gone
They paved paradise
To put up a parking lot
Why not?
They paved paradise
To put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey
Paved paradise
To put up a parking lotI don't want give it
Why you want give,
Why you want give it all away?
Hey hey hey
Now you want give it,
Ah she want to give it
Cause she givin' it all away
Now now nowI don't want give it
Why you want give,
Why you want give it all away?
Giving it all, giving it all awayWhy you want it?
Why do you want it? (She's giving it all away)Hey pave paradise
Put up a parking lot
