| Lyrics: | (Clark)
There ain't nothing in the world that I like better
than bacon and lettuce and
homegrown tomatoes.
Up in the morning, out in the garden, get you a ripe one, don't pick a hard
one.
Plant 'em in the spring, eat 'em in the summer. All winter without 'em is a culinary
bummer.
I forget all about the sweating and the digging every time I go out and pick me a big
one.
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes, what would life be without homegrown
tomatoes?
Only two things that money can't buy and that's true love and homegrown
tomatoes.
You can go out to eat and that's for sure, but there's nothing a homegrown tomato
won't cure.
Put 'em in a salad, put 'em in a stew, you can make your own, very own tomato
juice.
You can eat 'em with eggs, eat 'em with gravy, You can eat 'em with beans, pinto or
navy.
Put 'em on the side, put 'em in the middle, homegrown tomatoes on a hot cake
griddle.
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes, what would life be without homegrown
tomatoes?
Only two things that money can't buy and that's true love and homegrown
tomatoes.
If I was to change this life I lead, you could call me Johnny
Tomatoseed.
'Cause I know what this country needs is homegrown tomatoes in every yard you
see.
When I die, don't bury me in a box in a cold dark cemetery.
Out in the garden would be
much better 'cause I could be pushing up homegrown tomatoes.
Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown
tomatoes, what would life be without homegrown tomatoes?
Only two things that money can't buy
and that's true love and homegrown tomatoes,
homegrown tomatoes, what would life be without
homegrown tomatoes?
Only two things that money can't buy and that's true love and homegrown
tomatoes. |
