Led Zeppelin: Ramble On Meaning

Ramble On Lyrics

Leaves are fallin' all around
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...

   The LOTR's interpretation is indeed true. In the mid-1970s I remember reading an interview with Plant, and he said that during that period he was reading a lot of J.R.R. Tolkien. I could never get into Tolkien, so I took his word for it.

   OH MY GOD you retarded lotr fans, just because he uses gollum and mordor in the song doesn't meen that's what he's singing about, he's just relating the journey for his perfect girl to the journey frodo had to make for the ring. lots of people have seen or read w/e lotr. So that's how hard the journey is to find his girl, evil men can come and sweep her away, but he's looking for her for ten years he still hasnt given up on her, like a diamond in the rough, he found a girl so fair in the darkest depths of mordor,

   In this song "Ramble On" means like keep going, don't stop and give up that's exactly what Frodo needed to do. Ramble on, keep going and destroy the ring.

   But how is Frodo a rambler? He just wanted a quiet life. His quest wasn't about rambling, it was about one clear goal. Isn't it possible that you've got it backwards: that mordor and gollum are the symbols for something else, rather than the other way round?

   It actually is about JRR Tolkien's The Lord Of The Rings. "Ramble On" is an interpretation of Frodo's struggles of carrying the burden (or gift) of the One Ring, which is replaced by the girl. "But Gollum, the evil one, crept up and slipped away with her." While Frodo was wearing the Ring in Mount Doom and having second thought's about destroying the Ring, Gollum attacked the "invisible" Frodo. Biting off Frodo's finger, Gollum retainted the Ring after many years. Frodo then put up another fight, since Frodo fell to the power of the One Ring, and both fell over the edge of the cliff. Frodo was still hanging on the rock, while Gollum falls to his death in the lava of Mount Doom, destroying the One Ring in the mountain it was forged.

   I believe this song is just about a man going around the world looking for his soul mate hence the lyrics: "Ramble on , I'm going round the world/I'm gonna find my girl."

    This song is a reference to the book The Lord of the Rings and its story. It tells of the struggles Frodo had and his perseverence. So basically its to always keep going and never quit.
