This is one of those songs where Robert tends to
mumble the lyrics, so these lyrics aren't totally
accurate
Leaving town, now, baby
(I'd) leave before I call
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Darlin'
Leave before I go home
I don't want no Tutti-Fruiti-
No-life rock
Now come on baby just rock rock rock
Yeah ya ya ya honey,
We can shake them on down...
Whoa wo wo wo Darlin'
We just go on and ride...
Ahhhhhh
Ooooh... my head..
ROCK ON!
Hey Babe, Hey Babe (x4)
I don't no Tutti-Fruiti-
No-Life Rock...
Now come on baby just rock rock rock
I don't no Tutti-Fruiti-
No Life Rock
Now come on baby just rock rock rock

anyone who says that Led Zeppelin's songs all sound the same or are about the same things need to listen to the album this song is on (Physical Graffiti). all of the 15 tracks are great and unique but still definitly Zeppelin. this song has that rockin' boogie sound, "In My Time Of Dying" is a classic slow blues song, and "Kashmir" has that totally original Moroccan / mediterrainian / desert / drifter sound to it. i think this album is what really helped set them apart from Black Sabbath and the Rolling Stones and other similar bands of the day; III and IV probably had more popular singles and hits, but this one brings out all their talents and musical tastes and brings them together in one ecclectic album.

This song was just recorded as a jam session with Ian Stewart, who was the road manager and piano player for the Stones. And also, Robert Plant plays the guitar in this song, not Jimmy Page.

they did not rip this song from ritchie valens, Plant just spontaneously sang the lyrics from Valens "ooh my head". They specifically put Mrs Valens on the credits SO SHE COULD get royalties as ritchie was dead. i'm sick of ppl saying led zeppelin ripped songs without knowing which and how. Compare some of their 'ripped' songs to the originals and they only way you would know they were similar is the lyrics. good song...

You may have worked it out by now, but as it's stated above, "Stu" is Ian Stewart, who was the piano player and roadie for the Stones (often referred to as the 'the 6th Stone'). I managed to catch him in a solo concert not long before he died (the same thing happened with Alexis Korner, so I decided it would be better not to see BB King when the chance arose - he's still going strong :-) ). Excellent performer.

This was never a Ritchie Valens song. "Stu" is Ian Stewart of the Rolling Stones as mnkyonastick indicated. When Zep started recording in about '70 in the Rolling Stones' Mobile studio, Stu just started playing an out of tune piano and they all started jamming and came up with this. The Boogie-Woogie style of playing paino was Stu's forte. Obviously this was a leftover recording they would later release on 1975's "Physical Grafitti."

Yes meanceprimeaux they did rip-off three or four songs that were pretty much blues staples! I'm talking about the people who always bring When The Levee Breaks, In My Time Of Dying, Dazed and Confused, Custard Pie, Trampled Underfoot etc etc where you wouldn't pick it but for the lyrics.
