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 'til it's gone? They paved paradise 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 just to see 'em 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 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 That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone? They 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? They paved paradise Put up a parking lot I said 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 They paved paradise Put up a parking lot They paved paradise Put up a parking lot
