Cover art for Aberdeen lyrics by Cage the Elephant

You've all missed the point, but it's understandable. Butler County - KY. The guys of Cage know Aberdeen. It's a song about someone losing his virginity and taking a girls virginity in dear ole Aberdeen, KY.

Song Meaning

Re-Listen to the lyrics after you read what I just said. It goes way back - we all have that way back person in our life.

They don't all happen in Aberdeen, KY though and end up on Spotify. All these interpretations though are meaningful. Some are just more personal than others.

It obviously didn't end well for those two novices - but it's a great song.
