Vanessa Carlton does the singing in the Counting Crows version. The original and best was done by Joni Mitchell, an absolute queen among women. Go and get her 1970 album 'Blue' and you will learn what a woman's voice can do. Am-aaaaaaaaaaaaa-zing...

» Big Yellow Taxi
They paved paradise put up a parking lot
With a big hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot
Chorus:
Don't it always seem to go,
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone.
The paved paradise put up a parking lot
They took all the trees, put 'em in a tree museum,
And they charge the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em
Chorus
Hey farmer farmer, put away the DDT now
Give me spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees
Please
Chorus
Late last night, I heard the screen door slam,
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man.
Chorus x 2
The paved paradise put up a parking lot x 2
