Lyrics
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone? Paved paradise, put up a parking lot (Ooo-bop-bop-bop Ooo-bop-bop-bop) Took all the trees, put 'em in a tree museum And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see them Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone? They paved paradise, put up a parking lot (Ooo-bop-bop-bop Ooo-bop-bop-bop Ooo-bop-bop-bop Ooo-bop-bop-bop) 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 'til it's gone? Paved paradise, put up a parking lot Paved paradise, 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 That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone? Paved paradise, put up a parking lot Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone? 2-3-4 Paved paradise, put up a parking lot Paved paradise, put up a parking lot Paved paradise, put up a parking lot ah-ah
