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 show
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
They took all the trees
Put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people
A dollar and a half just to see 'em
Don't it always seem to show
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Hey farmer farmer
Put away that D.D.T.
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always seem to show
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Late last night
I heard my screen door slam
a big yellow bulldozer
Took away my house and land
Don't it always seem to show
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
