Guy Clark - Home grown tomatoes

Well there ain't ^Gnothin' in the world that I like better Than ba^Ccon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes ^D7Up in the morning out in the garden ^GGet you a ripe one, do not get a hard 'un ^GPlant 'em in the springtime, eat 'em in the summer All w^Cinter without 'em's a culinary bummer ^D7I forget all about the sweatin' an' diggin' ^GEvery time I go out and ^D7pick me a big 'un

^GHomegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes, ^CWhat'd life be without homegrown tomatoes? ^D7Only two things that money can't buy: ^GThat's true love and ^D7homegrown tomatoes.

You can ^Ggo out to eat, that's for sure But there's ^Cnothin' a home grown tomato won't cure ^D7Put 'em in a salad, put 'em in a stew ^GMake your own, your very own tomato juice You can ^Geat 'em with eggs, you can eat 'em with gravy You can ^Ceat 'em with beans, pinto or navy ^D7Put 'em on the side, put 'em in the middle Put a ^Ghome grown tomato on a ^D7hot cake griddle

^GHomegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes, ^CWhat'd life be without homegrown tomatoes? ^D7Only two things that money can't buy: And t^Ghat's true love and h^D7omegrown tomatoes.

Now, if ^GI had to trade this life I lead ^CI'd be Johnny Tomatoseed 'Cause ^D7I know what this country needs It's ^Ghome grown tomatoes in every ^Dyard you see. But w^Ghen I die don't bury me ^CIn a box in a box in a cemetery ^D7Out in the garden would be much better And I^G'da be a pushin' up the ^D7home grown tomatoes.

^GHomegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes, ^CWhat'd life be without homegrown tomatoes?
