You could call me Johnny Tomato Seed
That's true love and home grown tomatoes
You can make your own tomato juice
Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes
In a box in a cold dark cemetery
There's only two things that money can't buy
What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes
That's true love and home grown tomatoes
What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes
There's only two things that money can't buy
When I die don't bury me
Out in the garden would be much better
Only two things that money can't buy
'Cause I could be pushin' up a home grown tomatoes
Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes
If i have to change this life I lead
Up in the mornin' and out in the garden
What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes
Put 'em on the side, put 'em in the middle
That's true love and home grown tomatoes
Put 'em in a salad and put 'em in a stew
Only two things that money can't buy
Get you a ripe one, don't get a hard one
Home grown tomatoes
I forget all about the sweatin' and the diggin'
Plant 'em in the spring, eat 'em in the summer
All winter without 'em is a culinary bummer
Every time I go out and pick me a big one
What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes
'Cause I know what this country needs
Home grown tomatoes on a hot cake griddle
But there's nothin' a homegrown tomatoes won't cure
Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes
You can eat 'em with eggs, can eat 'em with gravy
You can eat 'em with beans, pinto or navy
You can go out to eat and that's for sure
Home grown tomatoes in every yard you see
