This song is a incentive for girls to keep guys which today is very necesary where women cheat being whores and expect men to act like home man.
According to songwriter Nicky Chinn, the words "can the can" mean " ... something that is pretty impossible, you can't get one can inside another if they are the same size, so we're saying you can't put your man in the can if he is out there and not willing to commit". So what she is saying is that women have to take initiative and pursue men in commitment which if you ask me it suits to todays society and leaves the decision making for the man. I can say that MAN WILL SURELY MAKE A KNOWLEDGEABLE DECISION IF HE'S THE EDUCATED MAN because presumably the woman will choose the best( which in my oppinion it will not happen as womens reputation go down with their prostitution.
