He's got that funny name   And ramblin', that's his game, that's it   He's Rambo, talkin' 'bout me   We'll see      They call him Rambo because he's travelin'   He don't stay in one place   His life's a string, he keeps unravellin'   He don't leave no trace      He's got a yen for changin' places   He digs changin' scenes   That way he stays in everybody's good graces      He's happy on the move   He's mobile and free   He wants no strings attached   That's how it's gotta be, see      He'll keep on ramblin' till the coda   He don't stay one place   Because he's just a ramblin' man   His favorite hobby's hittin' the road      He was a fella livin' solely   By the ramblers on the code      Some people are born to roam   Fate gave 'em roamin' natures   And so they wander around   Leavin' people wonderin' when they'll touch the ground      Hither and yon, here and beyond   Wherever they never been before   As soon as you're used to their face   They're off and runnin' again, gone to another new place      Peripatetic is the only word   That I had ever heard that people could use   That really describes him      There's no other word could do that   Only other word I know that comes   The closest to it is "Gypsy"      And that don't really fit him at all   "Cause he ain't tellin' fortunes, hates bein' dipsy   Everywhere I go, they call him Rambo   'Cause he won't stay long      In my ramblin', I've met a lotta people here and there   And see 'bout the same everywhere   Each with his own little thing   That he uses while he's tryin' to swing      Maybe the look ain't the same   But they play the same game   There's quite a lot of difference   In their outlook, I know      Still, yet, their story, lemme tell you   Is a story that you won't forget   [Incomprehensible]   I felt so stuck with my present situation      Later, when I got a little older   That was when I discovered I could split   And find myself another groove      That was all I need, I was on the move   I packed my little bag and started ramblin'   To this day, I'm a rover who'll always be ramblin'      You get drug stayin' in one place   Depressed and feelin' low down   Get new kicks movin' round'      Roamin' the country's educational for you   And widens your point of view   Tests your mettle, cools your mind out   And that's true without a doubt   You know? I mean you dig      That's Rambo's gig   Rambo is ready to ramble and itchin' to split   Oh yeah, he'll start packin' and quit it   Forget it! 'Cause he's done with it      That's Rambo! Travelin' light   Stay too long, he'll get uptight   So his motto is "Keep movin'"   You got it! That's his bit!      Next time he might leave an address   'Cause the little girl that he met last night   Paid him so much attention   That it made him a bit uptight      We might not have to call him Rambo   'Cause he just might be settlin' down   He's gone the way of all men, fat, skinny or tall men   It happened to this rover we know, Rambo
