"You Rascal You" is an American song written by Sam Theard in 1929,[1] and legally titled "I'll Be Glad When You're Dead."[2] The lyrics take the form of threats and complaints leveled against a man who has repaid the singer's hospitality and kindness by running off with the singer's wife.
Popular versions of the song were released by The Mills Brothers (#3 Pop, 1932), Red Nichols & His Five Pennies (#17 Pop, 1931), Cab Calloway (#17 Pop, 1931) and Louis Armstrong (#13, 1931).[3]
It has also been recorded by Clarence Willams, Sidney Bechet, Fats Waller, Tampa Red, Louis Jordan, Jimmie Noone, Cab Calloway, Champion Jack Dupree, Louis Prima, Fats Domino, John Fogerty, Dr. John, Henry "Rufe" Johnson, Serge Gainsbourg alone and in a duet with Eddy Mitchell, Ingrid Michaelson, Taj Mahal, and Hanni El Khatib, whose version was used in a television advertisement for the movie The Imposter.
Theard made a follow-up song in 1930 titled "I Done Caught That Rascal Now".[1]
