Seed Catalog
She sits by the window and waits for the mailman
By the clock on her mantle he's a little bit late
There may be a letter from her son or her daughter
Well here he is now, she walks to the gate.... but
It's a seed catalog from some place in Nebraska
With pictures of tomatoes you can grow in your house
She could go see her daughter or son if they'd ask her
But she don't want to put no one out

The least they could do is drop her a postcard
Some pictures of the grandkids would make her so proud.... but
It's a seed catalog from some place in Nebraska
With pictures of tomatoes you can grow in your house

Oh the kids are all home now but it took a funeral
And it's a little too late for what they're thinking about
The grandchildren stare at those plants in the kitchen
Grandma grew tomatoes right here in her house... from
A seed catalog from some place in Nebraska
She grew tomatoes right there in her house
She could have gone to her daughter or son's if they'd ask her
But she didn't want to put no one out
Tag: No she didn't want to put no one out
