California Sober Lyrics
[Verse 1: Post Malone & Chris Stapleton]
California-sober on the Highway 1
Over on the shoulder, thought I saw some fun
Lookin' for a ride
Trouble in some daisies, holdin' out her thumb
Stole some sucker's money, now she's on the run
And she wanna get high
[Chorus: Post Malone]
She said, I'll take you on a little trip
Come on, give these lips a try
[Verse 2: Post Malone & Chris Stapleton]
She drank up all my whiskey, blew down all my smoke
I became the punchline of some cosmic joke
Damn bottle was dry
Kinda wanted to cry
She whispered, Pull it over
I said, You're the boss
In a southern drawl said, Here's where I get off
I've enjoyed our time
[Chorus: Post Malone]
She said, Baby, give me one more kiss
Before I kiss your ass goodbye
[Verse 3: Post Malone & Chris Stapleton]
Needed me some diesel just to get back home
Tried to pay the man and found my money gone
Had to bum a ride
[Chorus: Post Malone]
So if you see them daisies walkin' 'round
Son you best just pass 'em by
And if you see a wallet on the ground
Bet your ass, that shit is mine
