In case anybody is missing it the "last dance” is sex. The guy’s fine with his wife going out on girls’ nights, dancing with other guys and even getting a little spicy while at it, as long as the last dance of the night (= sex) remains exclusive for him.

I think this song is sung in the point of view of the Devil, and is saying to stop blaming the Devil for everything bad. There are alot of references, including the crucifixion of Jesus, world war 2, and the assasination of John F. Kennedy. But who crucified Jesus? Man. Who started WWII? Man. What killed J.F.K? Man.

It isn't saying to really have sympathy for him, it is saying...

I don’t think it’s much of a stretch to imagine this song could be Neil Young’s description of ptsd before there was an official label for it. I imagine the protagonist is a kid, fresh home from the Vietnam conflict but not really psychologically in a safe place yet. So when he sees an unfamiliar boat coming up the river near his home he’s back in a defensive state and reacts as if he’s still at war, shooting at the boat. The last verse could relate to the possibility of reprisal, spending the next decades of his...

You know what that song means to you when you listen to it? That's more than what somebody else thinks somebody else told them that somebody else said that it might actually mean to somebody else.
