Radio Paradise (mobile)

Leaves are falling all around
It's time I was on my way
Thanks to you I'm much obliged
For such a pleasant stay
But now it's time for me to go
The autumn moon lights my way
For now I smell the rain
And with it pain
And it's headed my way
Ah sometimes I grow so tired
But I know I've got one thing I got to do

Ramble on
And now's the time the time is now
To sing my song
I'm goin' 'round the world
I got to find my girl, on my way
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble on
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams

Got no time to for spreadin' roots
The time has come to be gone
And tho' our health we drank a thousand times
It's time to Ramble on

Ramble on
And now's the time the time is now
To sing my song
I'm going 'round the world
I got to find my girl, on my way
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble on
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams

I ain't tellin' no lie
Mine's a tale that can't be told
My freedom I hold dear
How years ago in days of old
When magic filled the air
'Twas in the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair
But Gollum, the evil one, crept up
And slipped away with her
Her, her, yeah
Ain't nothing I can do, no

Ramble on
And now's the time the time is now
To sing my song
I'm going 'round the world
I got to find my girl, on my way
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble on
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams

Gonna ramble on, sing my song
Gotta keep-a-searchin' for my baby
Gonna work my way, round the world
I can't stop this feelin' in my heart
Gotta keep searchin' for my baby
I can't find my bluebird!
I'd listen to my bluebird sing but I can't find my blue bird
A-keep-a ramblin' baby

There are no versions consistent in this respect: often mistaken for bongos , some said of a small plastic bin for waste played with the hands from the side of the bottom, others about the sticks on his drum kit vinyl seat pad, or even the soles of the shoes he wore during the recording session and so rhythmically beaten with his drum sticks; the book John Bonham: A Thunder of Drums reports instead of a hard case for guitar on which Bonham improvised percussion background with bare hands [ Reply ]

Highlowsel Dec 20, 2012 - 13:47	Ah this one hits home. I first heard this in the middle of a year long hitch hiking jaunt across the 'ol U.S. of A. A young long hair with hardly a care just passing thru most of the communities I visited. I was a former military brat a'travelin' and seein' don't'cha know? And to paraphrase Kurt Vonnegut...so it went. Time passed. Ah..such nostalgia this song brings to me. So it goes. Highlow American Net'Zen [ Reply ]

I still have the first 5 albums in mint condition and they sound so much better on vinyl. Great 3 part documentary series on BBC4 in the UK at the moment "How the Brits rocked America" Last night it was the turn of the late sixties/early seventies bands (the best era of music for me) when the tours just got bigger and bigger. Good to see Jimmy Page (interviewed recently) looking so good. Some amazing concert and home made cine footage. "the turn of the late sixties/early seventies bands (the best era of music for me)": No shite, Pedro. There were GIANTS in those days! My daughters even think of it as Rock's Golden Age. I guess the music was to compensate for just about everything else being so crappy. Strange Days had found us. P.s., my vinyls are definitely NOT in mint condition: we played the grooves off the first 3 Zep albumds. [ Reply ]
