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)
