Big Yellow Taxi

Big Yellow Taxi
Amy Grant
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel,a boutique,and a swinging hot spot
Dont it always seem to go
That you dont know what you got till its gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They took all the trees and put em in a tree museum
And then they charged all the people twenty-five bucks just to see em
Dont it always seem to go
That you dont know what you got till its gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey farmer,farmer,put away your DDT now
Give me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees,please
Dont it always seem to go
That you dont know what you got till its gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Dont it always seem to go
That you dont know what you got till its gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Late last night I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi carried off my old man
Dont it always seem to go
That you dont know what you got till its gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Dont it always seem to go
That you dont know what you got till its gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
