This is basically about a woman who had everything she could possibly wish for: a rich husband, wonderful children, a "house by the beach"...but she still isn't happy. She doesn't love her husband no matter how rich he is and loves another man instead - a poor man who can offer her nothing except his love. She leaves her rich husband and children for Blind Lemon Sam and her life becomes a lot happier...I think this song is basically trying to say that no matter how poor you and your boyfriend/girlfriend are, your love for each other will keep you strong and happier than you ever thought you could be...don't marry for money, basically, marry for love
