A man who often has a strong affinity for women but is too much of a restless soul to settle down; therefore, he often breaks hearts. His own as much as the women he is with.
Waylon Jennings - I'm a Ramblin' Man.
You're standin' too close to the flame. Once I mess with your mind, Your little heart won't beat the same. Lord, I'm a ramblin' man, Don't mess around with any ol' ramblin' man.

Led Zeppelin - Ramble On.
Got no time to for spreadin' roots. The time has come to be gone. And tho' our health we drank a thousand times. It's time to Ramble on

Allman Brothers Band - Ramblin' Man
Lord, I was born a ramblin' man. Tryin' to make a livin' and doin' the best I can. And when it's time for leavin'. I hope you'll understand. That I was born a ramblin' man.

As in the song "Ramblin' Man" from the legendary Allman Brothers band, it is one who is always on the move, travelling constantly, wherever life may take him.
He's here today and gone tomorrow; a real ramblin' man.

1) Yea, Bob's a great guy but he's a Ramblin' Man, so expect him to up and leave one day with little notice.

2) Bob is gone. He left last night after he balled me. What are you gonna do? He's a Ramblin' Man.

Someone who accepts their life journey as it comes. Any challenges that come their way, they are unfazed by. They are the ones that carry on their troubles and throw them to the side.

The history can be linked to a popular Grateful Dead song titled, "Ramble on Rose."
Jerry: Did you hear what Katherine said to Summer last weekend?
Zack: Yeah, such a shame. I thought they were good friends.
Jerry: I know! I heard Summer is fine though, she's such a Ramblin' Rose.

Ramblin' Jack Elliott (b. 1931) is the world's greatest folksinger. He is the bridge between Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan and is actually the person who taught both Dylan, as well as Arlo Guthrie, Woody's material since Guthrie died early. An accomplished guitarist, he is known for his solid flatpicking skills.
Clueless Guy: Man, that Eddie Van Halen sure can wail!

Me: Uh, yeah, well, he's no Ramblin' Jack Elliott.
