Big Yellow Taxi (Traffic Jam Mix) — текст песни (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 `em in a tree museum
And they charged all 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 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

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 (3x)
