Maybe this forum needs an area where lyrics are posted to be the definitive guide to the songs. I for one would love to know what Plant really says on Carouselambra. I like that composition a lot! My type of music, especially the bass line and the classical bridge lines and the mid part. Maybe Plant and even Page don't want us to know. Plant said he doesn't like some of his old lyrics that much. Maybe time will change his mind, we can understand most of them anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam.e138 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Does anybody have a music notation/tab book published by Warners/Superhype? Surely that would be the definitive answer. FWIW, It's "big-legged woman" in my book, always has been always will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps porgie66 is correct and Plant says "biga legged" instead of big, yet I remember Beatle Laid. And I remember the article. Was the author inferring it? Perhaps. Trying to remember what I read back then. Crawdaddy, Cream,..... In any case, it ISNT ridiculous hummingbird69. Just keep an open mind. I may be 1000% wrong and will admit it, but I may be right too. If I am wrong it has to be BIGA legged like porgie66 says, there is another syllable there. sorry, but it is totally ridiculous just like the people who hear the words to Bad Moon Rising as "there's a bathroom on the right" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
