Текст песни Keren Ann - Big Yellow Taxi (Joni Mitchell cover)

(Joni Mitchell)

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique and a swinging 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 and put up a parking lot

They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to seem 'em
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone ?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

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 and put up a parking lot

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 and put up a parking lot

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 and put up a parking lot

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
