John you've been on the go ever since you were born and I
imagine few people in the world today have travelled as much
as you have. Now why?
Well I dunno.
I suppose some of us are cave dwellers, some of us live in houses, some of us like to be loose footed.
I'm a ramblin' man.

I'm a ramblin' man
And you're going to keep on rambling?
Oh yes, he he, have to.

| tazama (Oregon) | Posted: May 11, 2011 - 15:02 Just booked a flight to Mongolia and this came on. I have loved this song for many years. Great to hear RP playing it. Great back story on it from wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramblin%27_Man_(Lemon_Jelly_song) |

Music is cool too, like walking in a meadow with a nice fall breeze in your face. The music's cool, right enough, and I should like this as I do a hell of a lot of hillwalking, but I don't think the talking works. Maybe I'm a miseryguts, but I always figure that if there's a voice in a song it should be singing (a major reason why I loathe rap and all its derivatives - learn to feckin' sing, guys). The posh interviewer's voice grates as well - it sounds a bit like Dan Snow, well-known to UK TV viewers on election nights ("just a bit of fun, that's all it is"). Who's the 'rambling man'? |

| tiare (St. Remy, Paris, Los Angeles, Hilo, Wailuku Manoa, are my main hangs) | Posted: Mar 09, 2011 - 12:27 Yeah; not so much at first but I got sucked in! I am liking it, insouciance songified :-) |
| sbegf (Manchester, Maryland) | Posted: Mar 09, 2011 - 12:26 Interesting, different... |
