Here are the words and chords to Homegrown Tomatoes:

Chorus:

Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes,
What'd life be without home grown Tomatoes,
There's only two things that money can't buy:
Two love and home grown tomatoes.


1.  There's nothin' in the world that I like better than
Bacon, lettuce and home grown tomatoes
Up in the morning and out in the garden
Pick you a ripe one, don't get a hard 'un.
Plant 'em in the springtime eat 'em in the summer,
All winter without 'em's a culinary bummer.
I forget all about the sweatin and the diggin
Every time I go out and pick me a big'un.

CHORUS

2.
You can go out and eat'em that's for sure,
But there's nothin a home grown tomato won't cure
You can put em in a salad, put em in  a stew
You can make your own, your very own tomato juice
You can eat em with eggs, you can eat em with gravy
You can eat em with beans, pinto or navy
Put em on the side, put em on the middle 
Home grown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle

CHORUS

3.
If I could change this life I lead,
You could call me Johnny Tomato Seed
I know what this country needs,
It's 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 
Where I could be pushin up those home grown tomatoes.

CHORUS



This isNOT a complex song.  In any key, the chords are: I - IV - V7 - I
(e.g., in the key of G, chords are G - C - D7 - G).


CHORUS:

Homegrown tomatoes, homegrown tomatoes,
   I              -
What'd life be without homegrown tomatoes,
    IV                    -   
There's only two things that money can't buy:
       V7
True love and homegrown tomatoes.
     I              

1.

There's nothin in the world that I like better
            I
Than bacon and lettuce and homegrown tomatoes
       IV
Up in the morning out in the garden
  V7
Pick you a ripe one, don't bet a hard 'un
   I
Plant em in the springtime, eat em in the summer
    I
All winter without em's a culinary bummer
     IV
I  forget all about the sweatin and the diggin
       V7
Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un
        I

CHORUS


2.  You can go out and eat em, that's for sure

But there's nothin a home grown tomato won't cure

Put em in a salad, put em in a stew

You can make your own, your very own tomato juice

You can eat em with eggs, you 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



CHORUS

3.  If I could change this life I lead

You could call me Johnny Tomatoseed

I know what this country needs 

It's 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

Where I could be a pushin' up the home grown tomatoes.

CHORUS

Good luck and have fun.
