Ain't nothin' in the world that I like better
Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes
Up in the mornin' out in the garden get you a ripe and don't get a hard one
Plant 'em in the spring eat 'em in the summer
All winter without them's a culinary bummer
I forget all about the sweatin' and diggin' everytime I go out and pick me a big one

Homegrown tomatoes homegrown tomatoes
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes
Only two things money can't buy that's true love and homegrown tomatoes
[ fiddle ]
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 homegrown tomato on a hotcake griddle
Homegrown tomatoes...
[ fiddle ]
If I's to change this life that I lead I'd be Johnny tomato seed
Cause I know what this country needs homegwrown 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...
Homegrown tomatoes...
