Yes, this song is certainly underrated. It’s the only song I’ve ever heard with a triple entendre. When they sing the phrase “You got that right” four times in the refrain, the first two times seems to mean “You are entitled to that freedom”. The third time begins with the word “Well” and ends with an upward inflection as if to ask a question, which seems to ask “Do you understand me?” The fourth time emphatically states the phrase, as if to answer “That is correct!” So we have three different meanings to the same phrase in one song.
