There ain't nothin' in the world that I like better
      F
Than bacon 'n lettuce 'n home grown tomatoes
G
Up in the morning, out in the garden
  C
Get you a ripe one, don't get a hard 'un

Plant 'em in the spring, eat 'em in the summer
     F
All winter without 'em is a culinary bummer
   G        
I forget all about the sweatin' and the diggin'
       C
Every time I go out and pick me a big 'un

 C
Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes
  F
What'd life be without home grown tomatoes
 G
Only two things that money can't buy
  C
That's true love and home grown tomatoes

Home grown tomato on a hot cake griddle

Home grown tomatoes in every yard you see

When I die don't bury me
