Homegrown Tomatoes

There ain't nothin' in the world that I like better Than bacon 'n lettuce 'n home grown tomatoes Up in the mornin', and out in the garden Get you a ripe one, don't pick a hard 'un Plant 'em in the spring, eat 'em in the summer All winter without 'em is a culinary bummer I forgot all about the sweatin' and the diggin' Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes What would life be without home grown tomatoes? Only two things that money can't buy That's true love and home grown tomatoes You can go out to eat and that's for sure But there's nothin' a homegrown tomato won't cure Put 'em in a salad, put 'em in a stew You can make your very own tomato juice You can eat 'em with eggs, 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 Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes What would like be without home grown tomatoes? Only two things that money can't buy That's true love and home grown tomatoes If I've to change this life I lead You could call me Johnny Tomatoseed 'Cause I know what this country needs 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 'Cause I could be pushin' up a home grown tomato Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes What would like be without home grown tomatoes? Only two things that money can't buy That's true love and home grown tomatoes Home grown tomatoes What would like be without home grown tomatoes? Only two things that money can't buy That's true love and home grown tomatoes
