[Verse 1]
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
[Verse 2]
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
[Verse 3]
They took all the trees, and put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see them
[Verse 4]
But don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
[Verse 5]
Hey, framer, farmer, put away the DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
[Verse 6]
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
[Verse 7]
Late last night, I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man
[Verse 8]
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
[Verse 9]
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
