I think this song is about a solider that is leaving a war( I feel like it's set in the 1800's, but the Bartles and Jaymes reference throws me off). He needs a place a stay and through an open area through the trees, he sees a house with a front light on. Now the 3rd amendment allows the house owner to either accept or deny the soliders request to stay at someones house. But in this case, the house owner let's them in. Showing compassion and depth, even when the law and tell them to leave.
