[Verse 1]
C
There's nothin in the world that I like better
F
Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes
G7
Up in the morning out in the garden
C
Pick you a ripe one, don't get a hard 'un
C
Plant em in the spring, eat em in the summer
F
All winter without em's a culinary bummer
G7
I forget all about the sweatin and the diggin
C
Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un
[Chorus]
C
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
F
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
G7
There's only two things that money can't buy:
C
True love and homegrown tomatoes.
[Verse 2]
C
You can go out and eat em, that's for sure
F
But there's nothin a home grown tomato won't cure
G7
Put em in a salad, put em in a stew
C
You can make your own, your very own tomato juice
C
You can eat em with eggs, you can eat em with gravy
F
You can eat em with beans, pinto or navy
G7
Put em on the side, put em in the middle
C
Home grown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle
[Chorus]
C
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
F
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
G7
There's only two things that money can't buy:
C
True love and homegrown tomatoes.
[Verse 3]
C
If I could change this life I lead
F
You could call me Johnny Tomatoseed
G7
Cuz I know what this country needs
C
It's home grown tomatoes in every yard you see.
C
When I die don't bury me
F
In a box in a cold dark cemetery
G7
Out in the garden would be much better
C
Where I could be a pushin' up the home grown tomatoes.
[Chorus]
C
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
F
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
G7
There's only two things that money can't buy:
C
True love and homegrown tomatoes. (Repeat)
