They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
A pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot spa
Dont it always gonna to show
You never know what youve 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
They charged the people
A dollar and a half just to seem 'em
Don't it always gonna to show
You never know what youve got
Til its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Hey farmer, farmer
Put away that DDT
Give me spots on my apples
But leaves me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always gonna to go
You never know what youve got
Til its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Late last night
I heard my screen door slam
And a big yellow bulldozer
Took away the house and land
Don't it always gonna to show
You never know what youve got
Til its 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
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Great song. Joni's song but on the DVD Painting With Words she credits Dylan with one verse and immitates him singing it. The verse with the tractor. They are the king and queen American music.

He sounds a lot like John Prine here.
One thing about Dylan, he makes you laugh. You never know what's going to happen when you listen for the first time.
I love the background singers. They remind me a little of Leonard Cohen's backup singers in the 70's.
