You Rascal You Lyrics by Jack Teagarden

Pop Music: The Early Years 1890-1950

1931

I trust you in my home, you rascal, you
I trust you in my home, you rascal, you
I trust you in my home
You wouldn't leave my wife alone
Be glad when you’re dead, you rascal, you
You asked my wife to wash your clothes, you rascal, you
You asked my wife to wash her dirty shirt, you rascal, you
You asked my wife to wash your clothes
And something else I suppose
Be glad when you dead, you rascal, you
You know you done me wrong, you rascal, you
(No I didn’t know, no I didn’t)
You know you done me wrong, you rascal, you
(You’re wrong again, I tell ya)
You know you done me wrong
You done stole my wife and gone to St. Louis
Be glad when you dead, you rascal, you!
(You’re wrong)
You asked my wife for a meal, you rascal, you
(Well that’s all I wanted was a meal)
You asked my wife for a meal, you rascal, you
(So what more was there for me to ask for?)
You asked my wife for a meal
And something else you tried to steal (no no)
Be glad when you dead, you rascal, you
(You’re wrong again)
There ain't no use to run, you rascal, you
(Now, where in the world you think I’m gonna run to?)
There ain't no use to run, you rascal, you
(I ain’t gonna run nowhere)
There ain't no use to run (why?)
I’ll pip a pistol at you
Be glad when you dead, you rascal, you
I'll be glad when you dead, you rascal, you
