Various Artists - Counting Crows Ft. Vanessa Carlton - Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics
They paved paradise and put up a parkin' lotWith a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spotDon't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you got till it's goneThey paved paradise and put up a parking lotThey took all the trees, and put em in a tree museumAnd they charged the people a dollar and a half to see themNo, no, no, don't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you've got till it's goneThey paved paradise, and put up a parking lotHey farmer, farmer, put away your DDTI don't care about spots on my apples,Leave me the birds and the bees - pleaseDon't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you got till it's goneThey paved paradise and put up a parking lotHey now, they've paved paradise to put up a parking lotWhy not?Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door swayAnd a big yellow taxi took my girl awayNow don't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you got till it's goneThey paved paradise and put up a parking lotHey now now, don't it always seem to goThat you don't know what you got till it's goneThey paved paradise to put up a parking lotWhy not, they paved paradiseThey put up a parking lotHey hey hey, paved paradise and put up a parking lotI don't wanna give itWhy you wanna give itWhy you wanna givin it all awayHey, hey, heyNow you wanna give itI should wanna give itCuz you're givin it all away, no noI don't wanna give itWhy you wanna give itWhy you wanna givin it all awayCuz you're givin it all givin it all away yeah yeahCuz You're givin it all awayHey, paved paradise, to put up a parking lotla,la, la, la, la, la, na ,na, na, na, na, nahPaved paradise, and put up a parking lot
