The Honduras Song - Scott Welter
C F C G C
[Verse 1]
C F
Well we flew in from Chicago on a C141
C G
headed for a place they call Pomarolla.
C F
In a country far away, oh we landed there one day,
C G C
In a valley with mountains all around.
Am F
Now we met a man named Roger Bush, he told us we didn't know very much,
C G
was a crew cut hero with no hair on his head,
C F
and when he tried to form he said ranks of four we told him we didn't know anymore
C G C
cause we only drill one week in a month
[CHORUS]
G C
Now we’re the one eighty fifth, supportin’ tm sixty-four
G C
Farm to market road is their goal forever more
F C
Sixty feet wide by sixty tons, boy you better hold on to your guns
F G C
We’re looking for an armor plate sixty ton banana car
[Verse 2]
C F
We met a swing man jockey by the name of Mark loved to fly huey’s on a lark
C G
heads up to big bear just to find things out
C
Well he'd always come back just a shaking his head
F
when he couldn't find anything in his bed
C G C
so he puts on a Beatles tune, Twist and Shout
Am F
He’s a pomarolla kind a guy boy let me tell ya he’s not too shy
C G
always there to help you in a pinch
C F
when you see him walking around at night, carries his cooler with his Bud Light
C G C
Cause he really knows how to party Honduras style
[CHORUS]
G C
Now we’re the one eighty fifth, supportin’ tm sixty-four
G C
Farm to market road is their goal forever more
F C
Sixty feet wide by sixty tons, boy you better hold on to your guns
F G C
We’re looking for an armor plate sixty ton banana car
[Verse 3]
C F
Well we drive on over to blackjack in a Chevy Four Wheel Drive
C G
With them two Honduran people along the way
C F
Yeah we tried to speak their Spanish, Oh we gave it one hell of a try,
C G C
Saying ¡Hola, Como Estas, Have a good day!
Am F
Now I stop the truck about a half way there to visit a good friend
C G
His name is Herby the Iguana, it was fun.
C F
And on the way back just working on a phase we’d have to stop again
C G C
See if good ol’ Herby was bathing in the sun.
[CHORUS]
G C
Now we’re the one eighty fifth, supportin’ tm sixty-four
G C
Farm to market road is their goal forever more
F C
Sixty feet wide by sixty tons, boy you better hold on to your guns
F G C
We’re looking for an armor plate sixty ton banana car
F C
Sixty feet wide by sixty tons, boy you better hold on to your guns
F G C
We’re looking for an armor plate sixty ton banana car
