You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
They paved paradise and 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 and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise
You don't know what you've got
They paved paradise
You don't know what you've got
They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people, a dollar and a half 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 and they put up a parking lot
They paved paradise
You don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise
You don't know what you've got
Hey, farmer farmer put away that D.D.T. now
Give me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise
You don't know what you've got
They paved paradise
You don't know what you've got
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 and put up a parking lot
You don't know what you've got
The big yellow taxi
You don't know what you've got
The big yellow taxi took away my old man
You don't know what you've got
The big yellow taxi
You don't know what you've got
The big yellow taxi took away my old man
You don't know what you've got
