The song itself echoes the Depression era blues when thousands of men out of work
hit the rails to find work. Not all of the searches ended up positive. Many found only a continued life of want, lonliness, and poverty. The song struggles to grasp the inner struggle
of love and home and a sense of security and belonging. The message itself is one of warning, "The grass is not always greener on the other side of the hill."
