Big Yellow Taxi Songtext
von Joni Mitchell

Big Yellow Taxi Songtext

They paved paradise, 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
(Ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop, ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop)

They took all the trees put ′em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar an' 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
(Ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop, ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop)


Hey farmer, farmer put away that 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
(Ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop, ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop)

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 (ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop)


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 parking lot (ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop)
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot (ooh, bop-bop-bop-bop)
They paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
