Homegrown Tomatoes

Guy Clark

    Continues after the ad

    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...
