1913 and 1938 were the years before WWI and WWII. The question mark at the end of 197? implied that WWIII was just around the corner. Could it be about partying before the next war? Also Cold War tensions were high between America (where he resided) and the USSR.
@vanessa108 Bowie moved to the USA in 1974, and this song released in 1973, so I don't think that is relevant. However, the rest of your comment is spot on.
