[@rondavidso]

not only do I love their music but I just know that these two are just the finest people!

[@EmDKee]

I love this song so much! And this recording of those two is so sweet. Great for my sweet tooth! Thanks Dave + Gillian, thanks NPR.

[@thenightliners]

The ways they fuse into each other, musically, is just amazing :')

[@TaterPS]

Damn! That was fun.

[@SandieCastaneda]

This is a fun song ha! Love it 😍

[@cedens0001]

Despite looiking a little bit older. I'd still marry either one of them.

[@Luna_and_Miles]

This should have millions of view, for criminy sake!

[@JonnySoonami]

super good. dave pulls of a denim shirt and a cowboy hat all too well.

[@Jclarkhawkins]

Wolfs in the house!

[@tentrevue]

Six dentists disliked this video.

[@rebeccamazzio9320]

but all drug addicts liked it?

[@richardbilger2334]

That’s when they realized it wasn’t really about dental work…

[@bhaskarjyabaruah1090]

i frigging LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVEEEEEE Gillian !!!!

[@philipbates9648]

I’m guilty of having a sweet tooth. I love my sweets!

[@About2Rain]

My kind of candy. So sweet!!!

[@fukimosabe]

Beautiful in its simplicity.

[@tentrevue]

PERFECT.

[@bullsfan6969]

I'm going to listen to this everytime I go to the dentist

[@MagisterSaxonides]

"Is that all right?" Yeah, it's damn good.

[@CalebsIsland2056]

❤

[@medicinegone]

Damn. So great.

[@IanPatrickCompton]

Excellent!

[@MisterCTCutty]

love this

[@RickWOrth1]

yes yes yes... sweet!

[@redshaftedflicker]

If Townes and Blaze were with us they would be collaborating with Gillian and David no doubt about it.

[@yossarianhunter]

@MrBitsdu not at all... she watches him intently so as to not miss any impromptu changes or ad libs he might throw in... it's an essential part of that wonderful concept called "chemistry"... & as far as the sparkle in her eyes, NPR tapes these joints pretty early in the day, which is kind of the devil for a traveling musician... easy to not look yr best after a long night's gig then drive...

[@cflonnes]

Excuse my French (like my Grandma used to say) but, FUCK YEAH!!!

[@Minotaur6]

When you realize that the sweet tooth is a thinly veiled reference for other addictions... :'(

[@hanscastorp1945]

go on. I think i'm missing the reference

[@stevelever83]

100% The addiction isnt candy lol

[@alberts1985]

smokin some sweet tooth

[@JFBrinkerMusic]

Welches Mikro benutzen die beiden hier? Klingt fantastisch. So eins muß ich auch haben.

[@ellenhenry707]

I want the written lyrics so I can sing along!

[@Luna_and_Miles]

Sweet Tooth Lyrics A sweet tooth is a crying shame A sweet tooth is a crying shame A sweet tooth is a crying shame Gotta feed a sweet tooth ten times a day Just to hear the wind blowing on a windy day Cairo is a mean old town Cairo is a mean old town Cairo is a mean old town That's what my Uncle John told me When the sweet tooth got him down And it's a slow ride on the Santa Fe It's a slow ride on the Santa Fe It's a slow ride on the Santa Fe Crawling like a bear underneath the chair Looking for the sweet tooth And there's a poor little bean in the diner car There's a poor little bean in the diner car There's a poor little bean in the diner car Said it's so hard to wait sittin' on a plate I wish I was a candy bar Said little brother to sister Sue Said little brother to sister Sue Said little brother to sister Sue Ah, I got a sweet tooth for the tooth fairy And I'm workin' on a cavity I wanna be your honey but I got a sweet tooth I wanna be your honey but I got a sweet tooth I wanna be your honey but I got a sweet tooth I wanna be your honey but I got a sweet tooth I wanna be your honey but I got a sweet tooth I wanna be your honey but I got a sweet tooth I asked you once, I won't ask you twice Come and be my sugar daddy, I'll treat you nice You might also like How’s About You Dave Rawlings Machine Method Acting / Cortez The Killer Dave Rawlings Machine Ruby Dave Rawlings Machine Said the little bear to the honey bee Said the little bear to the honey bee Said the little bear to the honey bee I'd do anything in this doggone mighty world If you'd give in to your sweet tooth Said the soothsayer to the candy cane Said the soothsayer to the candy cane Said the soothsayer to the candy cane Ah, honey let me try you one more time I'll tell you if it tastes the same Well, I'm goin' to the doctor, gonna pull my sweet tooth I'm goin' to the doctor, gonna pull my sweet tooth I'm goin' to the doctor, gonna pull my sweet tooth I'm goin' to the doctor, gonna pull my sweet tooth I'm goin' to the doctor, gonna pull my sweet tooth I'm goin' to the doctor, gonna pull my sweet tooth The sign said closed Sunday And there ain't nothin' left to do but pray Ah, come on give me some of that Novocaine Come on, give me some of that Novocaine Come on, give me some of that Novocaine Oh, won't you come on, give me some of that Novocaine Come on, give me some of that Novocaine Come on, give me some of that Novocaine Keep the sugar coming through a candy straw I don't wanna feel the pain Tooth on a string, string on a knob Tooth on a string, string on a knob Tooth on a string, string on a knob That well water better make me well 'Cause the sweet tooth is hurtin' like a ringing bell And there's an angel in the attic, sugar on top There's an angel in the attic, sugar on top Oh, pretty please with sugar on top That when I die sweet tooth in hand I'm begging Peter send me to the candy land I'll meet the king of candy at a quarter to two I'll meet the king of candy at a quarter to two I'll meet the king of candy at a quarter to two I'll meet the king of candy at a quarter to two I'll meet the king of candy at a quarter to two I'll meet the king of candy at a quarter to two He'll feed my sweet tooth, bye and bye And he says he got somethin' gonna satisfy Sheep's in the meadow, wolf's in the house Sheep's in the meadow, wolf's in the house Sheep's in the meadow, wolf's in the house Candy's in the hand of the candy man And the sweet tooth's in my mouth

[@yossarianhunter]

@MrBitsdu & now that i've watched this again, i'm not sure you saw the same performance i did... Gillian seems to be having a fuckin'-a good time here... & yes, David is a nice guy... i met him once, and found him to be a real genuine, down-to-earth mofo...

[@lindseytanner7465]

Think I read she had a cold During this shoot

[@garrettmedlin4927]

Getting thirsty yet? XD

[@JimGuitarMan]

Ridiculous guitar playing.

[@tommitri]

while singing... :| love the man

[@rjohne7]

She doesn't look well.

[@EnosEverything]

I was just thinking the same thing when I checked in to watch and listen to this... I hope she's o.k.

[@fukimosabe]

This song makes me grin from ear to ear! Are they a couple?

[@Luna_and_Miles]

I think they're just really good friends.

[@PamK36]

Yes they are.

[@sophiapaulekas4767]

💘

[@manders77]

One of the best performances I've seen on NPR's Tiny Desk

[@Soemselbroems]

With Capo 10th Fret - there' s finally space enough in the smallest room

[@GillBJack58]

Oh! I've got a real sweet tooth for these two!! Love it!!!

[@katie12311]

God, I love this song! Never gets old

[@Luna_and_Miles]

Hot damn, that cheered me up so much!

[@konnyturtle]

David Rawlings is a genious!! The best folk singer songwriter guitarplayer of all times

[@jennbamboo]

……… and what about the lovely Gil ??? ❤

[@7evenunicorns]

I would love to trawl through that album collection!!!!!!!

[@jantherabbit]

dave and gillian are the best!!

[@jorgen-55]

I love those guys.

[@mjc01]

A wonder and a delight.

[@nomadjeff1922]

Cairo Illinois is a mean ole town. You could film the walking dead there. Tragic.

[@Aero119]

Can somebody tell me why there is a Breast Flexing video in my sidebar?

[@bstimy]

These two clearly don't have a sweet tooth. Great music !

[@DavidHibbertBestInjuryLawyer]

Sounds alot like Mississippi John Hurt's Candyman.

[@adders45]

where do you all play now?;'

[@jditty9565]

Tasty guitar, great harmony...love it!

[@blutos]

@davekelly1957 Exactly! Infact, they've covered Candyman a few times (there's even boots all over the web with Dear Landlord>Candyman) I've seen them live 3 times and their dynamic as a couple is just amazing. He's easily the best player in bluegrass at the moment.
