Lyric discussion by iluvpunkrock 

thia is about Joe from "the Clash" if anyone watched the CHilis on more4 on "live at abbey road", Flea was talking about how much of an influence he is on the band. "Swing low and now I know It's hard to let a brother go, Joe"

I think this could be a brief reference to Hillel Slovak, and a grief the band and Joe share.
