Nah... that's not it. He's reassuring his girl that he actually does care. He's just too proud to admit it. Dirty laundry is inactive... it just sits there. It's a metaphor for his lack of expression of his love, and it spreads, because when he doesn't express his love, its recipricol. Being jealous shows that a person cares about what the other is doing and doesn't like competition. The 2nd verse says, "I'm always out of town on tour, (always drunk on Sunday, their off-day), but I'm still nervous about what you're doing and misses her (feeling cold). The third verse says he's trying not to show he's concerned, by playing it cool. The last verse, the best one in my opinion, shows his frustration... don't you think I'd rather be at home? He wishes he could be with her always and wishes he could tell her that, but he thinks that would make him weak, a wuss, always talking about how much he loves her.
Awesome song for all those who have self-respect and pride.
