Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics - Dylan - Bob Dylan

They pave paradise, they put up a parking lot 

a pink hotel, a boutique and a swinging hot spot 

don't it always go to show 

you never know what you got till it's gone? 

they paved paradise, they put up a parking lot. 

They took all the trees, they put them in a tree museum 

they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see them 

don't it always go to show 

you never know what you got till it's gone? 

they paved paradise, they put up a parking lot. 

Hey farmer, farmer, put away the d.d.t 

give me spots on my appes but leave e the birds and the bees, please 

don't it always go to show 

you never know what you got till it's gone? 

they paved paradise, they put up a parking lot. 

Late last night i heard my screen door slam 

a big yellow bulldozer took away the house and land 

don't it always go to show 

you never know what you got till it's gone? 

they paved pardise, they put up a parking lot.
