Tuning: E A D G B E
[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 canC make your own, your very own tomato juice
You canC eat em with eggs, you can eat em with gravy
You canF eat 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
WhereC I 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)
