My attempt at writing a bluegrass tune and an opportunity to try my hand at some flat pickin’
… loosely based on a friends experiences growing up in a small town in the prairies … where everything is flat … you know, a place where you can watch your dog run away for a couple of days.
Lyrics:

Gomers
Gun racks
Pilsner beer
burnouts
grid road
haulin’ deer

Welcome to Chester Flatts

Country girls
And cousins too
Daisy dukes
and nothin’ to do

Welcome to Chester Flatts

Drag racing
on the service road
Booze cruisin’
with rye and coke

Welcome to Chester Flatts

Haulin’ a dead buck
in the back of the old stepside
Four by fourin’
What a ride

Fishin’ on the crick
down in the holler
Shootin’ varmints at the wrecking yard

Welcome to Chester Flatts

Hangin’ at the Big Bear truck stop
Waitin’ for my girl to bring my fries

Gomers
Gun racks
Pilsner beer
burnouts
grid road
haulin’ deer

Welcome to Chester Flatts
Welcome to Chester Flatts
Welcome to Chester Flatts
