Home Grown Tomatoes

                 G
Well there ain't nothin' in the world that I like better
       C
Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes
D7
Up in the morning out in the garden
G
Get you a ripe one, do not get a hard 'un
G
Plant 'em in the springtime, eat 'em in the summer
     C
All winter without 'em's a culinary bummer
D7
I forget all about the sweatin' an' diggin'
G                       D7
Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un

G
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
C
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes?
D7
Only two things that money can't buy:
G                    D7
That's true love and homegrown tomatoes.

        G
You can go out to eat, that's for sure
            C
But there's nothin' a home grown tomato won't cure
D7
Put 'em in a salad, put 'em in a stew
G
Make your own, your very own tomato juice
        G
You can eat 'em with eggs, you can eat 'em with gravy
        C
You can eat 'em with beans, pinto or navy
D7
Put 'em on the side, put 'em in the middle
      G                      D7
Put a home grown tomato on a hot cake griddle

G
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
C
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes?
D7
Only two things that money can't buy:
     G                    D7
And that's true love and homegrown tomatoes.

        G
Now, if I had to trade this life I lead
C
I'd be Johnny Tomatoseed
       D7
'Cause I know what this country needs
     G                            D
It's home grown tomatoes in every yard you see.
     G
But when I die don't bury me
C
In a box in a box in a cemetery
D7
Out in the garden would be much better
     G                       D7
And I'da be a pushin' up the home grown tomatoes.

G
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
C
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes?
        D7
There's only two things that money can't buy:
       G                  D7
And that's true love and homegrown tomatoes.
G
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
C
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes?
        D7
There's only two things that money can't buy:
    G                    D7
And that's true love and homegrown tomatoes, yeah
