Homegrown Tomatoes

Ain't nothin' in the world that I like better Than bacon & lettuce & home grown tomatoes Up in the mornin' out in the garden Get you a ripe one don't get a hard one Plant 'em in the spring eat 'em in the summer All winter without 'em's a culinary bummer I forget all about the sweatin' & diggin' Everytime I go out and pick me a big one Homegrown tomatoes home grown tomatoes Wha'd life be without homegrown tomatoes Only two things money can't buy That's true love and homegrown tomatoes I've been out to eat and that's for sure But it'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 Eat 'em with eggs eat 'em with gravy Eat 'em with beans pinto or navy Put 'em on the side put 'em in the middle Put a home grown tomato on a hotcake griddle If I's to change this life that I lead I'd be Johnny tomato seed Cause I know what this country needs Homegrown tomatoes in every yard you see When I die don't bury me In a box in a cemetery Out in the garden would be much better I could be pushin' up homegrown tomatoes --- Homegrown Tomatoes - John Denver
