I believe I read somewhere, or heard it in an interview, that this song is about how Blind Melon's time in Los Angeles was less than enjoyable. Also that they wished to return home.

From a general viewpoint, this song is about home sickness and a longing desire to leave, in this scenario, Los Angeles. When he returns home no one understands why he wishes to say there.
