The way I see it,

You just can't win it.

Everybody's in it for their own gain

You can't please em all

Theres always somebody calling you down 

 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

Till it's gone

They paved paradise

And put up a parking lot 

 Didn't it feel good

We were sitting there talking

Or lying there not talking

Didn't it feel good

You dance with the lady

With the hole in her stocking

Didn't it feel good

Didn't it feel good
