Big Yellow Taxi lyrics

They paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

with a pink hotel

a boutique

and a swingin' hot spot

Don't it always seem to go

that you don't know

what you've got

'til it's gone

they paved paradise

put up a parkin' 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 go

that you don't know

what you've got

'til it's gone

they paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

Hey farmer, farmer

put away the D.D.T. 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

'til it's gone

they paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

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

'til it's gone

they paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

I said

don't it always seem to go

that you don't know

what you've got

'til it's gone

They paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

they paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

they paved paradise

put up a parkin' lot

So happy to have discovered Lucky Voice. We'd never tried karaoke before, but this is so much fun! So many great songs and so easy to use. Love it!

Easy to set up, entertains the little ones by day and the adults by night.
