Gummer Beaudine - The Slobber Blues

 Gummer Beaudine stays true to style with this cover of a Toothless Mabel song, The Slobber Blues. She comes from performing in rough and tough country bars, and her sound sure shows it. Toothless Mabel had no qualms about giving her permission, and was taken by the rowdy nature of this version! Gummer's still busy on the hillbilly saloon circuit, and her recordings have gotten a lot of interest especially from people who've heard her live. 

Gummer continues to by mentored by Big Marv, as she's expressed an interest in writing some songs herself. She likes the song that Big Marv wrote for her, Let's Go Honky Tonkin', and wants to do some original material at her gigs. This lady is the real thing! She stopped by the studio to sign a short term contract and stayed for a couple of hours shooting the breeze! 

When your teeth are gone, makes your life different. 
Some things you can do, some things you cain’t. 
Corn on the cob, big red apple ya don't eat 
Sometimes it's a problem, sometimes it ain't 
 
Tell the truth I ain’t as pretty as I used to be. 
Thought store bought teeth might help that a mite. 
They look as bright as a new piano key, 
And it sure does help me to bite. 
 
But Oh lord, not the slobber blues! 
Ya don’t bite, ya don’t chew, 
Them's against the rules 
Them’s ain’t the things to do! 
 
 He treats me like a queen, toothless or not. 
He calls me good lookin’ tells me I’m hot. 
Still got a decent figure, with tasty sweet bits, 
Take off my clothes he throws a fit 
 
Pillows under his head all relaxed 
He lays back lets me do my thing 
I can tell if he's enjoyin' his self 
If his right foot starts to swing
 
 I love to play the slobber blues 
Gotta play the slobbery blues 
Put my teeth in a jar, then play it hard and far! 
My baby loves the slobber blues!
