Rita Ora - Big Yellow Taxi lyrics

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've
Got ’til it's gone?
They paved paradise, 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 go
That you don't know what you've
Got 'til it’s gone?
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot

Hey farmer, farmer, put away the DDT 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 parking lot
Oh la la la oh la la la

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 parking lot
Yeah oh la la la
Oh la la la 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 parking lot
(come on) oh la la la
Oh la la la
Oh, They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(one more time) oh la la la
Oh la la la
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
I didn't wanna end
