There ain't nothin' in the world that I like better   Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes   Up in the mornin' and 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 is a culinary bummer   I forget all about the sweatin' and the diggin'   Every time I go out and pick me a big one      Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes   What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes   Only two things that money can't buy   That's true love and home grown tomatoes      You can go out to eat and that's for sure   But there's nothin' a homegrown tomatoes won't cure   Put 'em in a salad and put 'em in a stew   You can make your own tomato juice      You can eat 'em with eggs, can eat 'em with gravy   You can eat 'em with beans, pinto or navy   Put 'em on the side, put 'em in the middle   Home grown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle      Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes   What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes   Only two things that money can't buy   That's true love and home grown tomatoes      If i have to change this life I lead   You could call me Johnny Tomato Seed   'Cause I know what this country needs   Home grown 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 pushin' up a home grown tomatoes      Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes   What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes   There's only two things that money can't buy   That's true love and home grown tomatoes      Home grown tomatoes   What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes   There's only two things that money can't buy   That's true love and home grown tomatoes
