NB LEAD VOCALS ARE IN UPPERCASE CHARACTERS
group vocals are in lower case characters
THEY PAVED AN' PARADISE PUT UP A PARKING LOT,
WITH A PINK HOTEL A BOUTIQUE AND A SWINGING HOT SPOT
DONT IT ALWAYS SEEM TO GO THAT YOU
DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE?
THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
THEY TOOK ALL THE TREES PUT THEM IN A TREE MUSEUM
AND THEN THEY CHARGED ALL THE PEOPLE
* TWENTY FIVE BUCKS JUST TO SEE 'EM
DONT IT ALWAYS SEEM TO GO THAT YOU
DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE?
THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
HEY FARMER, FARMER PUT AWAY YOUR D.D.T NOW
THEY GIVE ME SPOTS ON MY APPLES
BUT LEAVE ME THE BIRDS AND THE BEES.. PLEASE!
DONT IT ALWAYS SEEM TO GO THAT YOU
DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE?
THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
I SAID THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
DONT IT ALWAYS SEEM TO GO THAT YOU
DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE?
THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
LATE LAST NIGHT I HEARD THE SCREEN DOOR SLAM
AN' A BIG YELLOW TAXI CARRIED OFF MY OLD MAN
DONT IT ALWAYS SEEM TO GO THAT YOU
DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE?
THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
DONT IT ALWAYS SEEM TO GO THAT YOU
DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE?
THEY PAVED PARADISE AND PUT UP A PARKING LOT
OH MAN THEN THEY PAVED PARADISE PUT UP A PARKING LOT
THEY STEAMROLLED PARADISE 'N PUT UP A PARKING LOT
