[Verse 1]
There's nCothin in the world that I like better
Than baFcon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes
Up G7in the morning out in the garden
PicCk you a ripe one, don't get a hard 'un
PlanCt em in the spring, eat em in the summer
All wFinter without em's a culinary bummer
I  forgG7et all about the sweatin and the diggin
Every tCime I go out and pick me a big 'un
[Chorus]
HomeCgrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
WhatF'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
TherG7e's only two things that money can't buy:
True loCve and homegrown tomatoes.
[Verse 2]
You can Cgo out and eat em, that's for sure
But thFere's nothin a home grown tomato won't cure
Put eG7m in a salad, put em in a stew
You can Cmake your own, your very own tomato juice
You can Ceat em with eggs, you can eat em with gravy
You can Feat em with beans, pinto or navy
Put eG7m on the side, put em in the middle
Home Cgrown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle
[Chorus]
HomeCgrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
WhatF'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
TherG7e's only two things that money can't buy:
True loCve and homegrown tomatoes.
[Verse 3]
If I Ccould change this life I lead
You Fcould call me Johnny Tomatoseed
Cuz I G7know what this country needs
It's Chome grown tomatoes in every yard you see.
When CI die don't bury me
In a Fbox in a cold dark cemetery
Out iG7n the garden would be much better
Where CI could be a pushin' up the home grown tomatoes.
[Chorus]
HomeCgrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
WhatF'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
TherG7e's only two things that money can't buy:
True loCve and homegrown tomatoes. (Repeat)

Homegrown Tomatoes

by John Denver

Lyrics & chords · Original key

[Verse 1]

There's nothin in the world that I like better

Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes

Up in the morning out in the garden

Pick you a ripe one, don't get a hard 'un

Plant em in the spring, eat em in the summer

All winter without em's a culinary bummer

I forget all about the sweatin and the diggin

Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un

[Chorus]

Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,

What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,

There's only two things that money can't buy:

True love and homegrown tomatoes.

[Verse 2]

You can go out and eat em, that's for sure

But there's nothin a home grown tomato won't cure

Put em in a salad, put em in a stew

You can make your own, your very own tomato juice

You can eat em with eggs, you can eat em with gravy

You can eat em with beans, pinto or navy

Put em on the side, put em in the middle

Home grown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle

[Chorus]

Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,

What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,

There's only two things that money can't buy:

True love and homegrown tomatoes.

[Verse 3]

If I could change this life I lead

You could call me Johnny Tomatoseed

Cuz I know what this country needs

It's home grown tomatoes in every yard you see.

When I die don't bury me

In a box in a cold dark cemetery

Out in the garden would be much better

Where I could be a pushin' up the home grown tomatoes.

[Chorus]

Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,

What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,

There's only two things that money can't buy:

True love and homegrown tomatoes. (Repeat)
