They paved paradise and put up a parking 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 got 'til it's gone |
|
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot |

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum |

And a big yellow taxi took my girl away |
