California Sober (feat. Willie Nelson)

Well I used to like to ramble
With my good-time friends and neighbors
Now I find I'd rather lie awake in bed
And I don't get to actin' mean
When I keep my buzzes clean
And keep the hard stuff
And the whiskey from my head
Well I guess that's just
The trouble when you're always seein' double
And the lines are gettin' twice as hard to see
I've had years I don't recall
But I'm told I had a ball
At least somebody did
Who looked a lot like me
So I'm California sober as they say
And lately I can't find no other way
I can't stay out and party like
I did back in the day
So I'm California sober as they say
Aw pick it Willie
Well I heard out in the hills
They got pills to get their thrills
And they love their liquor down in new orleans
Maybe for a new york minute
Sugarcane will fit the bill
But in no time flat
You're out of what you need
The old crew don't get together anymore
These days much ever
After some went straight
And some went straight to jail
Now they're busy postin' vids
And just tryin' to raise their kids
Instead of raisin' holy hell
And postin' bail
Well I'm California sober as they say
And lately I can't find no other way
I can't stay out and party like
I did back in the day
So I'm California sober as they say
I was California sober
'Til I thought the world was over
Now I'm sittin' on the roadside once again
When that wagon passes by
I don't even bat an eye
Because the devil on my shoulder always wins
When that ol' wagon passes by
I don't even bat an eye
Because the devil on my shoulder always wins
