| Ain't nothin' in the world that I like better than bacon, lettuce and homegrown to-matoes |
| Up in the mornin' 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 with-out 'em's a culinary bummer |
| I forget all about the sweatin' and diggin’ everytime I go out and pick me a big one |
| Homegrown to-matoes, homegrown to-matoes |
| What'd life be without homegrown to-matoes? |
| Only two things that money can't buy |
| And that's true love and homegrown to-matoes |
| You can go out to eat and that's for sure but it's nothin' a homegrown to-mato won't cure |
| Put 'em in a salad, put 'em in a stew, you can make your very own to-mato 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 to-mato on a hotcake griddle |
| Homegrown to-matoes, homegrown to-matoes |
| What'd life be without homegrown to-matoes? |
| Only two things that money can't buy |
| And that's true love and homegrown to-matoes |
| Now if I could change this life I lead, well I'd be Johnny To-mato Seed 'cuz |
| I know what this country needs, homegrown to-matoes in every yard you see |
| When I die don't bury me in a box in a cemeter-y |
| Out in the garden would be much better. I could be pushin' up homegrown to-matoes! |
| Homegrown to-matoes, homegrown to-matoes |
| What'd life be without homegrown to-matoes? |
| Only two things that money can't buy |
| And that's true love and homegrown to-matoes |
| Homegrown to-matoes, homegrown to-matoes |
| What'd life be without homegrown to-matoes? |
| Only two things that money can't buy |
| And that's true love and homegrown to-matoes! |
