Text

Leaves are fallin’ 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’ve got to do
Ramble on
And now’s the time, the time is now
Sing my song
I’m goin’ ’round the world, I gotta find my girl
On my way
I’ve been this way ten years to the day
I’m gonna ramble on
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams
Got no time for spreadin’ roots
The time has come to be gone
Though our health, we drank a thousand times
It’s time to ramble on
Ramble on
And now’s the time, the time is now
Sing my song
I’m goin’ ’round the world, I gotta find my girl
On my way
I’ve been this way ten years to the day
I’m gonna 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 and the evil one
Crept up and slipped away with her, her, her, her, her, yeah
And ain’t nothin’ I can do, no
I guess I’ll keep on
Ramblin’, I’m gonna say
Sing my song, I’ve gotta find my baby
I’m gonna ramble on, sing my song
Gonna work my way, gonna ramble on
Gonna ramble on, yeah-yeah
Do-do-do-do-do, my baby
Ramble on, baby
Do-do-do-do-do
I can’t stop that feelin’ in my heart
Baby, time to think about what was so hard
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I keep on searching for my baby
My, my, my, my, my, yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Ooh, I can’t find my bluebird
