Maria Sangiolo, Lori McKenna, Alastair Moock - Didn't Know What I Was Missing lyrics

I thought that I tasted tomatoes
I picked one straight off the shelf
But, I didn't know what I was missing
Till I tasted one I’d grown myself

I thought that I'd eaten a green bean
How good could a green bean be?
But the greenest bean that you've ever seen
Was the one that was grown by me

I didn’t know what I was missing
I didn't know what I could do
Till I got my very own garden
That I put some seeds into

Come on Lori!

Carrots that come in a carton
Berries that come in a box
Eat 'em after some stuff from your garden
And it tastes like your old grey sock
(That's true)

Cabbage that comes in a can
Garlic that comes in a jar
If the label didn't tell me their names
I wouldn't be sure what they are

Yeah, I didn't know what I was missing
I didn't know what I could do
Till I got my very own garden
That I put some seeds into

Well, juiciest grapes in the world
The crunchiest cukes in the land
And they were right there under the soil
Just waiting for a helping hand

Some water sprayed in the evening
Some sun that just shone in the day
Some dirt in my pants from kneeling
And man, I can honestly say

That I didn’t know what I was missing
I didn’t know what I could do
Till I got my very own garden
That I put some seeds into

Well, I didn't know what I was missing
I didn’t know what I could do
Till I got my very own garden
That I put some seeds into
