i think its a real love tragedy this song. jimmy obviously screws up a lot so he tries to get some extra money for christmas to make his wife happy, but when he gets home shes left him. he gets drunk and sleeps around some more but it doesn't make him feel any better. he even reads newspapers from before she left in the hope it will bring her back. the real tragedy is those steaks that washed away in the rain.
