    I wrote this song about the city of Davis California while I was running for city council in 2008. Except for maybe my Anachronistic Punk Songs it doesn't sound like any of my other stuff. Nevertheless, people that at least know something about the lovely little college cow town seem to really like this song.Download the song. Share with your friends. Blast it at the farmer's market.

    Play along yourself:

    THE LITTLE TOMATO

    G
    Old New York was once New Amsterdam And Davisville was all farmland
    D
    Now New York has its skyscrapers and
    C
    Davis loves our water towers

    Well New York roots for the Mets and the Jets, the Giants and the Yankees
    But in Davis it’s the Blue Devils, yeah
    This is Aggie Country

    G
    If New York City is the big big apple then d-d-d
    D
    Davis is the
    C
    Little Tomato

    New York has its subway systems And Davis loves our Unitrans Buses
    We both got a central park
    But you’ll find fresher veggies in our farmer’s market
    In NYC you take the FDR, You spend half your life in a subway car
    But you can bike around Davis in about an hour
    From Covell to Cowell Boulevard

    If New York city is the big big apple then d-d-d
    Davis is the
    Little Tomato
    Oh Oh Oh da da daDavis is the Little Tomato

    ........G.........................................D................C
    And Kansas City claims to be the Paris of the Plains
    And the earmuff capital of the world is Farmington Maine
    And Bakersfield is the little Nashville of country music
    Just like Davis and Berkeley are both people’s republics
    Chicago is the windy city Sacramento’s the big tomato
    New Orleans is the big easy but Davis is the little tomato
    New York City is the city that never sleeps
    But in Davis if you snore too loud you just might meet the police
