With a pink hotel, a boutique And a swinging hotspot
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 took all the trees And put them in a tree museum
And they charged all 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 Till it's gone They paved paradise And put 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 Till it's gone They paved paradise And put a parking lot
Late last night I heard a 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
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
